Born on November 24, 1931. Passed away January 10, 2025.

Much loved wife of Hermann Ihnen (dec).

Mum to Dianne and Heidi.  Mother in-law to Darren and Col.

Oma to Courtney, Stephanie, Tyrone, Paige, Dylan and Ben.

Great Oma to 12 Grand Children.

Oma you were such an independent, determined and proud woman. We would often find you in the veggie garden planting zucchini and all sorts of amazing veggies. Your love for family was boundless and could not be measured.

The smile on your face when your children, grandchildren and great grand child came to visit was so big it made time stand still.

We loved you yesterday, we love you now and, we love you tomorrow.

Sleep peacefully Oma

Love Dianne, Heidi, Darren, Col and Families.

    Though she is no longer here with us, her love remains, as constant as the river that never stops flowing.

  24. Mum, I will deeply miss our walks through the garden, where you’d explain all the flowers to me you were always so proud of your garden, our heartfelt talks, and our quiet cuppas together. My final memory with you, sitting in your chair, holding your hand and brushing your hair, will stay with me forever. You always reminded me how special we were because we were handpicked for each other. I’ll carry that with me always. I will always miss you and your hugs, Forever in my heart Mum.

    Love,
    Dianne
