You were my life, my love and my inspiration. You were the perfect mother, and an unbelievable grand mother (Nanoo).
The love you had for your Mum and Dad (dec) and Cazza was unbelievable.
You always put others before yourself and gave them all the love and support that is possible.
My heart is broken and I will miss you for ever. We enjoyed nearly 60 years of perfect love.
Farewell my darling Trish – Until we can be together again ………
“BEYOND THE SUNSET”

 

Dearly loved daughter of Aileen and Arch (dec) Graham
Loving sister of Carole
Past away peacefully
Loving memory RIP

 

Mum you were my first love, my closest friend and my most trusted mentor.
You loved unconditionally and without judgement, you encouraged me to live the life of my dreams – the greatest gift a mother can give her daughter.
Mum you taught me everything I need to know in life, except how to live without you. My heart is shattered into a million pieces.
I love you mum, may you Rest In Peace Vale
Forever in our hearts, Rachael, Jimmy, AxelRose and Scrambles xox

A super human Mumma who taught me how to read and write, how to do wacky hair and sew my own clothes. You reminded me I was small but fierce, that loyalty is everything and to always pay it forward. You led by example and taught me how to be a mum. Adored by your grandchildren you were always there for them, helping with school projects, cheering from the sidelines or taking up a hem on their school uniform. Your love and wisdom was far too great to ever be forgotten.
Di, Rich, Piper, Willow, Archie, Milla and Hutch

 

My darling sister Trish, you were always so caring, kind and always thinking of others. You were definitely the perfect person.
Miss you, Carole

 

Privileged to call you our aunty. Loved endlessly and missed forever. Terri, Andrew, Lenny, Zac, Tommy and Cazza.

 

With a flitter and a flutter, you closed your beautiful eyes and flew to Heaven.
Thank you for all the love that you have shown Beau and I over the years. Little presents at the door, calling in for a cuppa at work, you always made me feel like I wasn’t alone. We’re going to miss you. Kerri and Beau xxx
