Jul 26, 1939 - Jan 12, 2021
She loved all sport and would play league tennis.
My mom was a spitfire! Small in stature, but stood up for herself and her loved ones.
She loved sewing and dressmaking, and everyday would surprise us with her creations!
Her favourite was a nice piece of fried have or a Frankfurter!!!
She loved to dance. She was very sceptical when making new friends, and therefore kept to herself a lot.
Very headstrong and brave, she also would give anything to someone in need
I'm sorry I did not get to you in time to say goodbye...
Her independence
Just sitting in her own home!
She has 7! Sheldon, Charne, Corel, Rief, Denholm, Shaw and Brendan
My mom was always a healthy, energetic and sporty person. She did not have any sweets or sugars and tried being healthy, but was diagnosed with breast cancer around December 2019. Due to her age and other complications, everytime she was scheduled for a mastectomy, it was cancelled either because of her high blood pressure, or her sugar levels, or her hip injury which was caused by falling after feeling dizzy. All these factors ironically were due to the cancer, and deterred her from further treatment. She deteriorated very fast since her hip injury, she was bed-ridden, and 3 weeks after that, she had passed away.
