Mum,

The beauty of a memory, is that it’s always there.
Like a penny in your pocket, you can take it anywhere.
And when your heart is heavy, and your eyes are filled with tears.
You can focus on a memory, and travel through the years.
Your heart can visit happy times, when laughter filled the air.
And the presence of your loved one, will lessen your despair.
So, as you travel on in life, take comfort as you go.
In a lifetime of “sweet memories”, of one who loved you so.
Love you Mum, forever and always.
Janine & John, Aimee, Matt & Zac, Emma & Brayden, Chelsea, Chloe & Mac. XxxxxxxCondolences to Ione, Tom and families may your Mum – Nana rest peacefully 💐❤️ Love to you all from Valerie WA ❤️

These adjectives help to describe the woman we’ve lost to the Heavens above, but really, Nana Jan meant significantly more to all of us than the English language can convey.
We are blessed to have had her in our lives.
I love you, Nana Jan. We all love you. ❤️❤️❤️

Where do I start
You taught me everything that you thought I would need growing up I have many fond memories of times that you were teaching me like fishing for trout and eels I would complain about not catching anything so you would say to me “ light up a cigarette for me” because every time you did you would get a bite you taught me how to cook clean sew knit how to grow vegetables even how to maintain a vegetable garden and lawn you taught me to believe in myself most of all you taught me Love it still doesn’t feel real
We all miss you 😢
