Brooke, Rob, Courtney, Will and Ruby. I hope you gain some comfort at this sad time from the messages that show what very high regard your beautiful mother was held in by so many. She is a beautiful soul and always kind, she could brighten a room with her smile. As nurses we have lost a very experienced sister, I have fond memories of working together with Maree.
Great memories of Allansford primary school days.

Joining with you all in feeling shocked and heartbroken in grief and loss.
Maree was such a constant in our lives, always looking to love and help others where she saw the need.
A devoted mother.
A loyal and loving friend with a ready hug and a listening ear. Giving to others, and not often counting the cost to herself.
Our lives will never be the same without her.
We miss you 'ree.October 13, 2023 2:41 pm
