Tributes
  1. The lunches at local bakeries, a wander through the Reject Shop or another bric-a-brac store, visiting the fishing spots that were your secret, cultivating the vegie patch that was always well stocked, enjoying your passion for the Mirboo area and surrounds, the laughs and discussions on every topic imaginable … so many wonderful shared memories, but they will not fill the void you have left.

    Rest Peacefully now, Jean.
