    Our dads were 1st cousins, our mums were great friends for many many years.

    Fondly remember the long chats our mums had over the fence at Cororooke, then chatting in the Carpark at St Brendan’s school and then back chatting over the fence after school.
    Then in later life, the long phone chats daily. Marg you will be very missed by mum.
    Thanks for your loyal friendship especially after we lost dad ( Bernie OS)
    Rest In Peace.
