Alwyn Gosling Obituary
Alwyn was born Sept. 28, 1972, in Brisbane, Australia. She earned a B.A. in Philosophy and Mathematics from Queensland University, and worked as a nanny in the Australian Outback. She moved to Japan to teach English, while there she met her husband, Justin.
She travelled extensively in Central and South America -- cycling several thousand miles along the Pacific Coast with her camping gear. Often she'd ride until she ran out of light and set-up camp at sunset.
In 2000, she moved to Hoboken, N.J., with her husband. She worked as an auditor and compliance officer for 17 years at Merrill Lynch and Bank of America. Her true love was her family and she raised three children, making a home and many friends in Newtown, Pa.
Alwyn was a very outgoing individual. She started an expat club while in Japan; and kept in contact with many of her students and fellow teachers over the years. She enjoyed spending time with her book club friends and loved working with BELA (British Empire Ladies Association) where she made lasting friendships.
Alwyn understood what a blessing life is and prioritized the important things -- family and friends. To Alwyn, life wasn't about the destination, the weekend, the upcoming vacation or material possessions. Life was to be enjoyed right here, right now, through building relationships and experiences with family and friends. Alwyn was a very kind and generous person. She will be missed by all.
Alwyn is survived by her husband, Justin, and their three children, Madeline, Jack, and Matthew; her parents, Rhonda and John Price; and her three siblings, Fiona Clark, Lloyd Price, and Helen Groombridge, all of Queensland, Australia. She also is survived by her mother-in-law and father-in-law, Arthur and Betty Gosling of Cedar, Mich.
Alwyn's family will receive condolences from 3 to 4:30 p.m. (casual attire is requested) Wednesday, June 26, at the Joseph A. Fluehr III Funeral Home 800 Newtown-Richboro Road (at Holland Road), Richboro.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you donate to her favorite charity "Doctors Without Borders", P.O. Box 5030, Hagerstown, MD 21741-5030.

To Alwyn's family,
While Alwyn's time on earth was far too short, her impact was immense to those who were lucky enough to have cross paths with her. I was one of those who got to know her through work. I will miss her enthusiasm for life, her family, friends and her smile.
With the deepest of sympathies

From all of your family over here in Australia, we are so grateful for the life you shared with us all. You were so beautiful in everything you did, thank you for so many wonderful memories. I cherish the memories of the deep, philosophical conversations we had around your dinner table when we were growing up. It was a place where everyone listened to, valued and respected everyone.
You carried these values on through your life and made us feel like the centre of your attention when we were with you.
Thank you.
Bruce.

I was in B.E.L.L.A with Alwyn, she was always so friendly and interested in anything you had to say. I enjoyed talking and laughing with her during the many dinners we had. I no longer live in Newtown because we moved back to Canada so I will not be able to attend the service.But I will donate to a charity in her name. My thoughts are with her family.

Alwyn and I used to work together and I always admired how she approached everything with a smile. She always spoke so fondly of her family, and it was clear that they and her friends meant everything to her. Alwyn made the world a better place, and will be missed.
My heartfelt condolences to Alwyn's family, and all who had the privilege of knowing the grace of her smile and presence.
