Dear James,
So saddened to hear the news. Jenny and I were hospital buddies when we gave birth to our daughters. I remember putting on a pantsuit and going to the nearby shop to buy the 4 of us in a shared room, a milkshake each. We laughed and supported each other through the post delivery process. Love to your family, especially to Natalie. -

Arron and SamLegacy of Love.
A wife, a mother, a grandma too,
This is the legacy we have from you.
You taught us love and how to fight,
You gave us strength, you gave us might.
A stronger person would be hard to find,
And in your heart, you were always kind.
You fought for us all in one way or another,
Not just as a wife not just as a mother.
For all of us you gave your best,
Now the time has come for you to rest.
So go in peace, you’ve earned your sleep,
Your love in our hearts, we’ll eternally keep. -
Jenny you were loved and appreciated by so many people and your kindness and generosity will always be remembered by all of those people whose lives you touched in your special way. Our house will not be the same without your visits and we will always remember you. All our love today and always.

Dear Jungle, Aaron, Brenden, and Natalie,
Jenny was a wonderful Auntie – I have strong memories of the many times I stayed with you as a kid, and Jenny was always loving, accepting, and genuinely made a large effort to make me feel including and loved.

Lots of love, from Brad, Sheree, Darcy, Finley and August Murray
