Dear Julie, Jordana and family, Bree and family, and Sam, Tania and Andrew
Whenever I think of Lorraine it is in images of greek coconut cake at tennis in Forrest, wily older women- deadly tennis players, and my orange kitchen cupboards and her willingness to paint them, despite wishing she did not have to do so.
You will miss her dearly, thinking of you all,
Love from Jo Oddie, Caitlin, Dylan and Megan Roberts
