Condolence Messages
Dear Mary, Colin and Helen,
So very sorry to hear of the passing of your very loved Dad. Whilst sadly I have not met any of you Cathy Pratt very kindly keeps me up to date with the family news. So how do I fit into the picture, it is distant, however my beautiful late mother Barbara Hardy (ne Stein)was Joyce Thompson’s sister, married to Uncle Kevin. We really loved hearing Kevin’s tales from his early life when they would drive all the way to Queensland to visit us firstly in Springsure, then in Winton, so may years ago. Just looking at the phone he looks so very like Uncle Kevin. Thinking of you all at this very sad time. Do hope I get to meet you with Cathy when I come to visit. Warmest Wishes
Tracy Hardy.
Dearest Mary, Colin, Helen and families, sorry we couldn’t attend Don’s service today. I was able to watch via the livestream and was very touch by the beautiful service. Don will be forever in my heart sending much love to you all Peter, Christine MacDonald and family.
