Jeffrey, Meaghan and Family

Ruf and I have known your Mum for many years. I met Elaine through Dale in the 70’s. We would like to send our sincere condolences and know that you will have many beautiful memories to help you through this difficult time. She would want you to smile when you think of them.

Dear Meaghan, Grace, Jeff and Lara,

I’m so sorry for the loss of your mom and my dear friend! She will be so deeply missed by anyone who had the pleasure of knowing her love and friendship. I will always remember Elaine for her kindness, wisdom and generosity. She has been a blessing to me and a treasure of friendship.

Rest in peace, my friend!

Love and sincere condolences,

Marj and family

Meaghan, Grace and Jeffrey are thoughts are with you at this very sad time.

There are so memories of the lady who was a true and supportive friend to me and my family.

Starting with Meaghan going home and telling her mum about the new girl in her class (Kirsten ). Sheand Elaine made sure that she was in Mrs Kennedy's croup for the kindergarten field trip.

Elaine french braiding Kim and Kirsten's hair for dance and recital.

The antics the Kennedy and Johnson children getting into.

Rescuing me from the door to door sales people and us watching them come to my house from her upstairs window.

All the afternoons my Megan napped at the Kennedy house while Elaine and I enjoyed many, many cups of tea.

Thank you Elaine for being a true and special friend to me and my family. You will always be remembered with love. Anne and the Johnsons.

Meaghan thank you for letting us know via text as we were away on the day your mom joined your dad. Elaine I will miss out over the fence backyard long chats, how many decades has it been? This summer we had to stand on tippy toes to peek over the fence, the fence our hubbies had so much fun building. We knew we were always there for one another, caring & supporting. Dennis gave you 5 years with Grace, saw you getting tired and said enough, come here! Elaine I will think of you always when I step out my back door & look into your yard. RIP dear neighbour.

Meaghan, I never had the opportunity to meet your Mum but you always spoke of her with amazing stories of love, care and devotion you received growing up. You are in my thoughts Meaghan and my deepest condolences to you and your family.

Our condolences to the Kennedy family! She is watching over all of you and you will feel her presence as time passes! Gone but never forgotten!

My deep condolences to the whole family.

I remember Elaine as being so full of life, joy, humour & great kindness.

It was a miracle really that she ended up in the hospital room with my late husband, turning some of his own last days into comfort & care. She looked out for him in the midst of her own times of need.

So like her.

Her love was special.

I’m so glad to have met her & the times our paths crossed were authentically real. Just like her.

Colourful in actions and in mind, I will truly miss my forever friend.

Bonnie
