Dear Mary, we shared some good times, and you were there for me in some of my not so good times. Your quick wit, beauty and honesty shone through bright with everything you did. When you were impassioned by something you were a force to be reckoned with. You are one of the strongest,
most inspiring women I have ever met and through our many conversations it was easy to see your family was your everything. My heartfelt condolences to Ben, Lisa and families.July 21, 2024 5:09 pm
Deepest sympathies to Lisa, Ben and families. I have so many happy memories to help ease the terrible loss of a
truly beautiful friend.
To my dear mate, I will miss your humour, our belly laughs, our mad
times together and most of all someone to confide in - you were a legend darling, a true and loyal friend always and
I just can’t get my head around you not being with us anymore. RIP darling friend.🌷🌷💕💕😥😥Helen (Smithy) and family

You are one of the most honest straight shooters I have ever met Mezi.
A loyal lady who could make anyone laugh.
Working with you at Telstra was always interesting, and introducing Alison to Ben has given us the chance to stay connected.
Rest easy
