I send my condolences and love to John and Glenda, Janet and Wayne and your families. Uncle Don and Aunty Ailsa shared a wonderful life together and I remember my mother, Grace, being very proud of her close connection as they were more that first cousins. I am fortunate to have some petit point embroidery that will always remind me of two very special people. Best wishes for today and I hope the conversations and memories bring you comfort.

My sympathy to you both John and Janet and all the family. Your parents were very special people to us from way back, and in more recent times of supporters in every way of Carey Park.
In recent years, Tim and I have enjoyed visits with your Dad - nearly always the cricket was on - he was always bright and cheerful in spite of the increasing mobility issues. My last visit was last year after Tim had died and I took a service sheet to him. Very good memories of a life well lived . Love, Mary Long
