Gwen and Family
I had the pleasure of meeting your mum everytime she came to visit you. We used to chat about me being here for you and the children when she goes back to New Zealand. And now more than even I will be here for you. I would sit and listen to you Gwen ringing your Mum at the hospital many many mornings, sometimes you could talk to her sometimes you couldnt but I was here to pick up the pieces and happy to do this.
I promise I will be here for you and the Children, but wanted to pass on my
love to you, Murray and the children during this sad time.

Nana you gave life everything you possibly could. You fought till the end and never gave up. I have the greatest memories of coming to visit you in NZ and will miss you dearly. The best memory I have is all your delicious cooking which you knew I loved. You always had the shelves stocked for me both in Australia and NZ. I will never forget the moments we shared when you came to Australia. You were a special lady and I am very proud to have you as my Nana. You have given me a great Mum and It saddens me that there will be no more memories to be had all together. It saying that, it gives me great solace that you are no longer in pain and have been reunited with Grandad. Miss you heaps, love always Ben & Bonnie xxx

My Mum
As I sit here writing a message my heart is broken - I cant believe you have gone - I cant believe we will never chat on the phone again but I smile when I think of the great memories of your visits here to Sydney - the many coffees - the laughs - playing with the kids - and the extra kids I often had - you would arrive not knowing how many in our house but you would just arrive embracing it all - your suitcase packed with endless containers of slices, cakes - mostly Murray's favourites - you would then sit and knit - and each visit complete another blanket for each of us till we all had our own. I knew the visits would stop due to your health but you would ring late at night when you couldnt sleep and we would chat on and on. You tried a few times to email but could tell the phone chats was easier!
We have many things scattered around our home - covered coathangers, knitting, embroidery that will always remind us of you
You were so brave right to the end - stronger than I could ever have been
I will treasure the phone call the night before you went into hospital telling me how you positive you felt.
Murray and I will never forget you and now more than ever we will treasure those memories Gwen xxx
