I will always love and cherish our friendship and the memories I have of you Julieanne. You were such a selfless lovely lady, always caring for your family, checking in on your friends, despite what you were going through. The long chats, the fun, the cheeky tricks you played and the laughter we shared. So wonderful.
I will miss you so much.

Dear Dick, Karina, Sharna & families,
We are so sorry to hear of the passing of your beautiful and much-loved wife, mum, mother-in-law and nanny.
I remember Julieanne growing up with us and all the special times we shared together. I will especially miss all the phone calls we had over the years—her warmth, her humour, and the way she always made time for a chat.
Karina and Sharna, you were very lucky to have such a beautiful mum, and she was equally lucky to have two wonderful daughters who cared for her so deeply.
Please know we are thinking of you all during this very sad and difficult time. May the love you shared and the memories you hold bring you comfort in the days ahead.
With all our love,
Frances, Des, Miranda, Dainen, Brenton, Adriana & family 💔💔December 10, 2025 6:04 pm

To dear Julieanne,
I only wish I could have thanked you for the countless nights I got to spend under your roof as a kid.
Just typical of the caring person that you were to help out a neighbour, a friend, and take me in to your loving household so often. Games of backyard cricket, netball, and various other games, followed by a wonderful tea and the absolute highlight - your famous bread and butter pudding.
Under that roof lived such a warm and loving, happy family - such a wonderful place to be - which can be seen in the two beautiful young women that grew from it.
You can be so proud Julieanne to have seen your beautiful girls now raising their own children with the love and warmth that they grew up with under yours and Dick's care.
Thank you Julieanne. Rest in peace beautiful lady.Larni, Luke, Elsie and Max xoxo

I will miss you so much, my dear friend. We could talk for hours and never run out of words—those long conversations meant the world to me, and I will miss them more than I can say. Every call, we’d laugh and say, “Imagine if we lived closer!” I wish we had.
You were truly a beautiful, caring soul who always thought of others before yourself. Your love for your family was endless and unwavering, and it shone through everything you did.
Thank you for the warmth, the laughter, and the friendship you gave so freely. I will carry you in my heart always.Love you xx

Mum, you have left an incredible hole in our lives, where each minute of the day is so empty- without you in it with us. The best Mum, Wife, Mother in law and Nana we could ever have asked for. You poured so much love into our family and we created so many precious memories together. Although you faced many hurdles and battles with sickness in your life you remained the most vibrant positive person. You silently fought your battles, never complaining and continued to carry on with life. I often mentioned to you Mumsie- how proud I was of you. Such a brave, determined and strong woman who had such a zest for life. We will carry on many of your loves for your gorgeous little grandchildren, holidaying in the our caravan, gardening,cooking, keeping in touch and spending time with family and friends, watching the horse races. And of course barracking for our beloved Geelong Cats. Thank you for everything!! Go spread your wings and enjoy the next chapter of your eternal life ❤️🙏😘. Karina.
