Deirdre NELSON Obituary
NELSON nee Robertson
Deirdre (Dee) Ann:
5 November 1953 - 6 March 2014
Passed away peacefully at Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital surrounded by her immediate family following complications from bowel surgery.
Beloved daughter of Jack and Doreen (both deceased), sister of Dianne, John and Denise, wife of Paul, mother of Kylie, Michael and Mark, and grandmother (Nanny) of Mikayla, Jai, Kyle and Paige.
Dee, you will be sorely missed.
Your unselfishness and motherly advice touched so many people and brought so much joy and happiness into their lives. Thank you for 40 wonderful years of marriage and companionship. You were my wife, my lover and my best mate and so strong and courageous until the end. We walked a long road together. Now it is your time to be at peace and out of pain my darling bride until we walk together again.

NELSON (Dee ): I knew you for the bulk of my adult life and you were always a bundle of joy, a shining light in any room. You always made me feel part of the family and the same goes in more recent times for Julie. We will miss you and rest assured we will keep a watchful eye over Paul.

NELSON (Deirdre):
We worked together placing ads in the newspaper, so it's somewhat ironic and yet appropriate that we honour our respected colleague and much loved friend Dee, (Deedles, Mrs Nelson) with a notice in the newspaper. Precious memories of our times on the Research balcony. Our deepest sympathy to Paul, Kylie and families. H'y, Boycie, Brad, Robbie, Todd and Schultzy
