Many thanks for streaming Maureen's beautiful service for those of us who could not be there. Maureen was such a considerate and generous person and I will be forever grateful for the love she has shown me and my children throughout the years. An enduring memory will be the time I spent in the beautiful homes she created, memorably colourful rooms full of beautiful artworks and textiles where I always felt welcomed. Such a special gift. And the baby clothes! A tower of homemade bibs! Incredible! Thank-you so much Maureen, for everything, you were amazing Rest in Peace.

Our children running over the two wooden bridges their fathers had made over a creek! Maureen and I on hot summer days hanging out our 'washing' when in our bikinis!! Rest In Peace.
