Kaye's Chair

Mum used to walk Ellie along the beach every day, and along the foreshore path. We have commissioned a chair along the path, near the walking path entreance on Rice St in Port Sorell. The Chair looks out over where Mum's ashes were spread.

The Chair

Murray River

Mum loved outback Australia, she also loved the Murray river. For her last birthday the entire family went on a houseboat cruise out of Mildura up and down the Murray, ranging between Gol-Gol and Coomealla; stopping in at the vineyards and taking walks in the native bushland along the riverbank.

Eagles

Mum absolutely loved Wedge tailed eagles, so it was very fitting that on the day that she left us, a group of three wedge tailed eagles held a fly over of the house as the funeral parlour staff took her from the house.

The Old Tarts

Each life is touched by others and the recent, sudden passing of our dear friend, Kaye has demonstrated this truth. We will miss her warmth, caring nature, boundless smiles and laughter shared in our “Old Tarts” monthly meetings for nearly twenty five years.

She made a difference.

Vale Kaye.
