See you on the other side Louie’s mum xxOne word to describe my postie is a “character”. She loved a laugh and a great prankster. A loving warm and compassionate woman who mothered all her kids friends at any time of day. Her big smile was always contagious and the love of her garden was infectious. I will miss her dearly.
