To Virginia and families. So sorry to hear of Mary's passing. She was so good keeping an eye on mum at Ashwood, especially during lock down when we couldn't visit. A very kind and caring person. Thinking of you all.

Oh Mary, you were such a lovely lady and a wonderful friend to my Aunty Flo. I loved to hear the stories of you both going on jaunts in your car and getting up to mischief surrounded by hoots of laughter. May you be up there with your loved ones and Aunty Flo getting up to shenanigans and entertaining everyone. Rest in perfect peace.

Deepest Sympathy to the Hope family on the passing of such a lovely woman who I first met through the Dwyers
a long time ago, and subsequently many enjoyable social encounters over the years, normally on a racetrack.
Thinking of you all at this sad time.
