Yp Made it.
We would watch all the 4x4 and grey nomad DvD's of this magnificent place and say we will get there one day ,Well, I hope you are watching as we travel around as I'm showing you a place we wished we could see,Old girl wish you were here to see it all.But I regret to say If i wasn't so sick I may have enjoyed it more,I miss our talks about all sorts of crap,advise I might need or a tail you had to share or other things like that.Each year I't gets a little easier to, but I know I'll see you soon life is short and we must except the fate,It come's sooner for some ,like it did with you,you left quite sudden that is true.
Our memories are fading as we make new ones life is happening ,but every day there is that one thing that brings me back to a strong thought or reminder of you .
Happy birthday for another year missing you lots.
Sometimes more than I thought I ever would.
Your favorite spot to sit and read.

Mum,
Yp one more year gone ,What can I say except things are changing, whether they be for the better of worse only time can tell, and I know you'll be watch us all.. We still miss you just as much as always but life is busy these days, And you taught us all that life was ment to be lived ,So as each year passes and I watch your grandkids/great grandkids grow I'm reminded of the Mother I used to know, She was a determined, strong women that let nothing slow her down, She was always the first to go to bat for any kid aroundBut don't ever cross her or you'd get what for ,as she would give you a sweet dressing down Mum what I'm saying is that I can only hope, to be half the Mum that you were to me. Miss you always every day.

Mum you are always in my thoughts,,,Not just today but everyday...
Miss me, but let me go
When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me
I want no rites in a gloom filled room
Why cry for a soul set free
Miss me a little - but not too long
And not with your head bowed low
Remember the love that we once shared
Miss me - but let me go
For this is a journey that we must all take,And each must go alone
It's all a part of the Master's plan
A step on the road to home
When you are lonely, and sick of heart
Go to the friends we know
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds
Miss me - but let me go
(Anon)
.......................
Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there, I did not die.
(Mary Frye)
...So hence I Know you'd not want me kneeling at you grave but to go forth and live my life in the memory you..
missing you always Mum....

A tribute to the old girl ( my MOther )
A florist departs,
A florist stood at the golden gate,
her head was bending low,
she meekly asked the man of fate,
the way she should go
what have you done ? " Saint Peter " said. to seek admission here?
I was a florist on earth - for many a year. come inside Saint Peter said and gently pulled the bell. come inside and choose your wings " you have done your share of Hell ........... REST IN PEACE OLD GIRL

My memories will always stay with me, of the many hours spent at the shop, of the many talks we had about politics and also listening to the radio no matter what room we where in you would only miss seconds of what they were saying and that was only cause we were walking from the shed to the house. I have been blessed to have meet you and your family. You will be missed.
Love from Meloney, Derek, Layla, and Felicity

Connie you are missed terribly by many, but you will remain forever eternally in the hearts and memories of all those who grieve for you. You were an amazing woman always at the ready for a good story or crazy joke. But most of all you were ALWAYS there for your family and friends. An impecible heritage for your children, grandchildren & great grandchildren. Our thought & prayers are with them all in this time of heartache. Much love to you all.

I honestly don't know where to start.Connie you were & always will be a huge influence on my life, one thing I can take away from knowing you is that people will either accept you as you are or they wont & if they don't then that is their loss,always be true to yourself & don't change for anybody,stand up for your beliefs & as you always said bugger the rest of them. I am a better person for knowing you & I thank you for all you taught me, I will miss you more than I think you would ever realise & I was truly blessed to be a part of your life.
Love Cynthia, Daniel & Tegan

Connie, what can I say? You were always telling me to get myself (and the family) back over here. Never in a million years did I think it would be for this.
I have so many wonderful memories of you from my many visits over here and I'll share in many more no doubt during my future visits.
My deepest love to Harry, Debbie, Cindy and families, and especially to my best friend Kel during this difficult time.
Rest in peace, lots of love
