Joy and John thinking of you and all your family at this very sad time. RIP Michelle from Catarina and Greg

When I first met Michele, she was in her school uniform, with that cheeky smile and willingness to try anything. We went roller skating a few times in Hamilton with her siblings, and once on the way home, Michele persuaded me to let her drive. Well, I never knew my VW Beetle could corner on 2 wheels, with Michele laughing her head off, and everyone else screaming in terror. Never again, the driving instructors earned every penny with Michele!
I lost touch over the years, as I had my own family, but whenever we reconnected, it was as though I'd seen Michele and her family just recently, such a warm welcome, and in my eyes, just the same cheeky schoolgirl.
I last saw Michele at Joy's 80th birthday, zipping around on her knee scooter after breaking her leg, with a smile that lit up the room. Now, 2 years later, her light has gone out, with those who knew and loved her in shock. Rest well, dear Michele. Love from Lindi

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. Thinking of you at this very sad time. xx

Joy and John. Thinking of you both at this sad time.
