  5. Maria was a strong woman. Queen Maria our aunt from Australia. We thank you, because without you and your connection to the family in Germany we would not have got to know Australia. We were able to experience many days together in Australia and Germany. We will miss the phone calls. It was nice to see you again and to celebrate your last birthday together with you. Memory is the window through which we can see you whenever we choose. Rest in peace. Karl Heinz, Roswitha with Elena, Sebastian and Luca.

  24. Maria, mum is waiting to talk your ears off about the latest food, fashion and furnishing trends. Just like the old days. You were an inspiration and I have many fond memories of you – from stopping me entering the ‘dome’ as I was too young, to when I had my wedding photos in your beautiful home, and occasionally gate crashing your Monday night dinners with the folks. You will be greatly missed. Sending my condolences to mark, Jodie, peter, Annette, Shane and families

    It’s hard to let a loved person go. But don’t forget: it isn’t forever. She’s waiting with uncle Eugen for us. Until it’s time for our next meeting, we will remember her, as the loving person she has been. There will always be a special place reserved for her in our hearts.

  29. On behalf of the Rutherford family, I wish to honor the remarkable life of María Vogt, a dear friend and neighbour. As a migrant in Australia, she embodied the true essence of an entrepreneur, building a thriving business legacy from nothing with her husband Eugen through sheer determination and incredible business acumen. Her unwavering spirit and love for her German roots shone brightly in her homemade cooking, which filled our hearts and tummies 😀 Maria’s thick accent and warm hospitality will long reverberate in our memories and her drive to succeed will forever inspire us. May she rest in eternal peace. We will miss her down her on planet earth.
