  17. Dear Mum,

    We were so fortunate to have such a kind and caring mother who provided so much love, compassion and support throughout our lives and you taught us so many things.

    We all share many of your qualities and values which has flowed through to your family and especially to your grandchildren, nephews & nieces and we all take pride in them and we will hold & cherish them for ever.

    You loved and enjoyed life together with all its challenges. Your best medicine was when I would see you together with your grandchildren including relatives, family and friends, including your carers and support workers from home care packages.

    We enjoyed many outings together going out for coffee or lunch, and shopping.

    We all cared and comforted you in our own way. For me, it was always a pleasure to care and look after you and to always be by your side during the good and difficult times.

    You were always so strong right up until the very end

    We will greatly miss you, and we will always honor you’re legacy and memory, and each morning, I will always make a pot of tea for two.

    Your loving son Frank.

    Frank Mannuzza December 3, 2024
