Dear Aunty Marie.
I always so looked forward to visiting you when I was over from Melbourne.
We have such fond & treasured memories of you coming to our family home prior to your marriage to dear Ted.
It was a privilege to decorate & ice your wedding cake all those years ago.
From Gary & myself, we send deepest sympathy to Annette, Pauline, Warren & families.
You have been such a great support & comfort.
I am so sorry I am not able to attend Aunty Marie´s farewell on Wednesday but our love, thoughts & prayers will be very much with you all.

I have many happy memories of times spent with Marie.
Ted was my cousin and when I stayed with them it was lovely to see how happy they were together.
Thank you Marie for being a loving wife to Ted, and a good friend to me.
Loving thoughts to the family who gave Marie so much support and love, especially over the last 8 year's when she was in care.
God bless the family as you adjust to life without Marie.
Rest in peace Marie a long life well lived.
