Dear Sue, Gary, Donna, John, Michael, Cathy and families. My thoughts are with you all at this time. Sorry I am unable to be there today to celebrate Jeans life. I feel a little bit more at ease knowing Lorraine and Jean will be able to finally have that cuppa and chat peacefully in heaven.

Fond memories of Thursday's in Colac during school holidays with my Nan, Auntie Dotto and Auntie Jean, lots of laughs being shared, and a few $$$ in the pokies for good luck. Always quick-witted, interested and interesting, Auntie Jean will be sorely missed by all who had the pleasure to know her. She lived a full and rich life, and made the lives of those around her so much more enjoyable. Deepest sympathy to Suzanne, Donna and Michael and your families.
