Rene and I sat side by side in church every week, now I sit in her seat. Fond memories, Shirley.
Shirley never had to buy milk, as Rene always bought too much for morning teas at church – to support the farmers – then sent others away home with the extra bottles. With thanks for Rene’s care and friendship shown to my mother. Ruth (daughter).
My mother would have been so happy that Mrs Koschade had her seat
I will miss my mum’s regular updates on your family.. Love from the Wakelam family to our friends the Koschades
Thanks for your comment, Paul.
Continuing to hold you all in our thoughts and prayers.
Love from Shirley, Tim, & Ruth.
Aunty Noreen, the news of your passing comes to me late with great sadness. Precious recollections, of your longstanding friendship with my mother, Noni nee Nora Greenwood, Pavlidis (Dec). Childhood memories of all of us kids, you, my mum, Uncle Terry, and lively conversations around the kitchen table at Dandenong and Bunyip. Your kind nature and wonderful carefree laughter, has left us all with so many treasured memories.
