Sending love to you all on the loss of your beautiful Vonnie. We loved our time we spent with you on those freezing cold days at the footy – where you would send Ian off to get us a nice hot cup of coffee. I think we met up at every AFL football ground in Australia and we would have a good old chat and laugh and of course barracked for our boys!
Sleep peacefully Vonnie.Maree and Bryce Selwood xx

Sending my condolences to Hendy, Chloe and Lachie on the loss of your beautiful wife and mum Vonnie. I first met Vonnie when we both had kids in kindergarten and she became somewhat of a mentor for me, she had a way of making people feel capable and validated. Such a beautiful lady. Rest In Peace Vonnie.

Dear Ian, Chloe and Lachie,
Our sincere condolences to you and your families.
We first met the ‘unforgettable Vonnie’ when our son Ed began Yr 7 with Lachie.
To us, Vonnie was brave and bold and bright and beautiful, yet always kind and gentle and honest and generous. A fine friend.
Vonnie visited us in our home regularly, ever since our first introduction in 2002.
Her presence was without fail vibrant, colourful, interesting and entertaining!
We will miss Vonnie very much.
Love

To Ian, Chloe, Lachie and family,
Vonnie was my friend. She welcomed me when Mitch came to college and I joined the parents group. Always interested in others , kind and caring and happy to help. We would wave across the ground when Geelong played Brisbane , and chat on the phone catching up with news. I’m proud to have known her and my family send our kind thoughts.
With love Deb, Rowan and Mitch Kent -

Our thoughts are with you people as no doubt the whole district is during this time
You and Vonnie have been almost a part of many families in our community. Your family has impacted and helped us all usually during the difficult times we all confront as farmers over many years
Hopefully knowing the enormous respect people have for your family helps in some small way
