Jaren AUSTEN Obituary

To the Austen Family
Thinking of you at this sad time and the memories of Jan will live on in your hearts.
Much Love Dot

Jan and Keith were great friends of my Mum and Dad- Eric and Daphne Gifford. The Austens were our neighbours on Simpson Rd during the 1970's and 80's. I have great memories of that time. There were lots of visits, laughter and good times when we all came together. I can remember some very long election night gatherings where the wine was flowing into the wee hours. Jan was also instrumental in getting me into horses. She was always a wheelie dealer and prepared to sell to make a profit. She offered us a lovely piebald mare 'Pollyanna' ( which she originally bought for Keith) and Mum and Dad subsequently bought her for me. That was start of my life long passion for horses. Jan also had fabulous goldfish for sale and we would go over and select some for our aquarium. Over the years Jan kept in contact with my Mum and Mum would always love hearing from her and share the family news. My heart goes out to Jan's family, especially Keith and Sue. I am so sorry for your loss. RIP Jan.
Love and condolences from Janet Gifford-Bryan

My deepest sympathy to Keith, Sue and family. I will remember the good times we shared on the farm with you and Keith. You will always be in my heart.

Love.
