Eileen SEARLE Obituary

On Thursday, March 27, 2025, our dear Mum, Nan, and great-Nana passed away peacefully at Bethesda Rest Home, aged 96 years. Dearly loved wife of the late George, adored Mum and mother-in-law of Les, Arthur and Dianne, Rachel and the late Graham Dawson, and Gavin and Yvette. Mum was a special Nana to Nathan and Karla, Craig, Michael, Rebecca, Chloe and Mark, Alex and Lish, and a great-Nana to Ayla, Michaela, Emily, Maxi, Georgie, Harper, and our dear wee angel Eloise. She was a loved auntie to all her nieces and nephews. Mum has gone to catch up with her mother and father, brothers, and sisters; Jimmy, Bobby, Harold, Angus Ede, Annie Clark, Kath Matthews, Georgina Bray and Bill. A special thanks to the wonderful staff at Bethesda Bishopdale who care for Mum during her stay. A celebration of Mum's life will be held in the Canterbury Crematorium Chapel, Linwood Avenue on Friday, April 4, commencing at 11.00am.
