‘Maisy’:
A twinkle in her eye,
A tinkle in her laughter,
And the best Christmas pudding around.
Farewell to a kind and generous Aunty.
Love to Sue and Kim & family,

With my sincere sympathy to you Kim, Sue and family on your loss of your mum and grandma. I have many happy memories living next door to the “Nelson’s”. Both your Mum & Dad were wonderful neighbours to us and where my mum (Phyl Cahill) and your parents enjoyed the same passion for gardening!
Sending my best wishes at this sad time.
