  16. Fond memories of Thursday’s in Colac during school holidays with my Nan, Auntie Dotto and Auntie Jean, lots of laughs being shared, and a few $$$ in the pokies for good luck. Always quick-witted, interested and interesting, Auntie Jean will be sorely missed by all who had the pleasure to know her. She lived a full and rich life, and made the lives of those around her so much more enjoyable. Deepest sympathy to Suzanne, Donna and Michael and your families.
