Auntie Ed was a very special person to us. Her and Uncle Tony always treated us as one of their family. So many happy times together. We will really miss her with her infectious sense of humour and generosity. A outstanding lady, now rest in peace.

Thinking of Karen and David, John and Margaret. Very sad to hear that Auntie Ed has passed away.
Many great childhood memories for me visting her, Uncle Tony, you guys calling and Peter. Laughs, the beach, watching the VFA, dinner and of course the cakes. Visiting there was always something I looked forward too and will never forget. Great times with lovely company and Aunty Ed always made us feel very special. Elegant but I can still hear her laughing at some innapropriate joke being told.
Feel honoured to have been a small part of her life.
Lots of Love
Linc, Paula, Coop, Ella and Millie.
Dear Linc and Family,
