A Richmond supporter through and through.

Magnificent flowers.

White Dove release.

Tributes from her sons, telling stories of love, laughter and sharing raw emotion.

A Bagpipe es**rt to her final place of rest and everyone walked behind the hearse.

RIP Dawn - you will be sorely missed, simple as that!

On a crisp autumn day, we said goodbye to a very special lady.

Her son said to me “You can’t describe my mum - no way you could describe her – she was the best mum”.

Those sentiments were echoed throughout the service.

Sleep peacefully Nancy.

Gentle, humble, loyal. This man loved his family above all others. There were so many people here today to say goodbye to this much loved man.

He loved and I do mean loved, his job and the company who employed him. As long as he was in a truck he was content.

RIP Jacko.

I love that people "bother" to send an email to me, at a time when they are grieving and have so much more on their mind.

Thankyou 🌸🌸🌸
I have amended names to respect their privacy.

"Hi Deb

Just a short note to thank you for your compassionate handling of a difficult time with mums passing.
Nothing but good comments regarding your excellent presentation of the eulogy.

Thanks
L, J and W"

A gentle, humble man.
He was a perfectionist.
He loved nature.
And most of all - he loved his family.

A few of today's guests!

72 years together.
70 years married.
Separated only by his passing.

They arrived in Australia with a few suitcases and built a life full of love and memories for the family to cherish.

The FD went above and beyond to match flowers that were in the bridal bouquet all those decades ago.
