6. Maureen was a very much loved and special friend within our family.
   We shared so many things.
   Coffees, meals, a red wine. Weaving was a joy we shared with art and music. Our 18 years of friendship was a gift that enriched our lives.
   Bless you Maureen and thank you.

7. Maureen was a true friend and dedicated member of the bell ringing group since it began in 2017 in Port Fairy. Her musicality and willingness to help in any situation was admirable and always appreciated. My life has been all the richer for having shared such a constant, sincere and loving friendship with Maureen. Both Ruby and I will miss her deeply.
