1. Goodbye my Melbourne mummy, thank you for taking me on all those years ago. I loved being your other daughter.... You were amazing, so kind, so funny and so crazy... Working with you was one of the best times , painting the bosses office multi colours... Priceless... So many times you were always my rock, being there when my mum died, being crazy grandma to Jake, helping me laugh through my relationships... My Melbourne mummy I love you and will miss you so much.
   Love to my sistas Sonya and Simone, in my thoughts... Much love Christine xx

2. Dear Sandra, oh boy! Miss you already, my friend. Your larger than life personality touched us all. Your beautiful smile, infectious laugh, the fun times we shared, I will never forget. Always so kind, and thoughtful. While always looking ever so glam. We loved your paintings and creative side. But most of all just a beautiful soul inside and out. Cheers! To you dear friend, you can now rest, in peace. Love to Simone, Sonia and family. Love from Pam Whitty and family. Xx

4. So sorry to hear that Sandy has died - she was a vibrant person who refused to be defined or limited by her illness. Thinking of you, Simone. You've borne more than your share of grief and loss this last year or so, and with such strength and love.

5. Chook, you told me that you would bump into Mum whilst on your new journey. Give her a hug from me and when she hands you silver beet mixed with flowers you can tell her to b.y.o (her own). She will know what to do and you can share a huge laugh together. You made Mum's life so much better with your love and laughter and consequently mine as well. We bought Dexter home together that first day and you went together that day. Love you heaps chook and always will. Goodnight nurse. xx
   To Simone and family, our love and wishes go out to you.

7. Sandy, I met you too late in your life but the time we had was so special!!! You are the greatest inspiration to what means most to me. My only regret is that we ran out of time. I will so miss your smile and your positive outlook. You have given more than you know!! Thanks for giving me the chance to share that time together.
