Hi Lovey You have a new great niece - Her name is Charlie Eljay. Look over her. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXx

A monster went to the doctor with a branch growing out of his head."Hmmm," said the doctor. "Ive no idea what it is." The next week the branch was covered in leaves and blossom. "Im stumped," said the doctor, "but you can try taking these pills." When the monster came back a month later the branch had grown into a tree, and just a few weeks later he developed a small pond, surrounded by trees and bushes, all of them on top of his head. "Ah!" said the doctor, "I know what it is. Youve got a beauty spot."

Nan's funeral is tomorrow Lovey. Sending you something with her. I will be speaking on your behalf - The kids will back me up if need be. Look after us and help us through the day. You should be here.

Hi Lovey. By now you and Faffa should be catching up with your mum. Bet you have heaps to talk about. Thank you for seeing that she went peacefully. She's got a message from me to give to you. I found the angel. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Hi Lovey Not the same without you. Too cold and miserable to get the Gt out but we will get there. Remembering all the times we used to go for a drive - cruising up and down the coast. Fathers Day was great excuse to do that. We missed the Targa as well. Look after your mum. She is stable and looking better but still need you to keep check. Kids send love. They are a bit lost at moment - too much happening to digest. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The grandchildren and great grandchildren gave her house a spring clean from top to bottom and the garden a makeover and her car looked at. We have all made hospital visits!!! Fantastic!!! She should be very proud of her family, theirlove and support. Keep watch over her!!!!! love Leeane

Hi Lovey Thank you Unlocked chainsaw - but then chain fell off - we give up!! Miss you terribly XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Hi Lovey, It has just rained and rained. All the tanks are full and gardens looking beautiful. I missed you badly today - all the blossoms are out on the fruit trees and I could just see you out there walking with a cuppa in your hand. This whole situation sucks big time. The peacock is back - surprised him in the duck yard. Tail all grown back again. We are all doing our best for you but How do we unlock the chainsaw? XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Hey Uncle Mark, Well I hope I am making you proud, I started a new job this week n love it. I now work for Payless Shoes, yes I know that could be dangerous cause of my love for shoes but I am Happier and I get to dress as a girl again. Love ya n miss ya

Was writing the date down at work on Tuesday morning, and thought "its uncle marks birthday today, oops forgot to send a card". Funny how your brain works sometimes. Hope you shared a beer up there with Faffa. Think of you often, miss you. Love Jodie

Happy Birthday Lovey. It was a great day - as you know - as soon as we heard your song come on last night - we just knew you were with us. While I am going to be older than you now in life - In spirit I shall remind you of your real age all the time. You don't get out of it that easily. Look after us in our projects in the coming months. Love you, Miss you XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Hi Lovey Happy Birthday for tomorrow. You will be 49. Getting to be an old man now. Sending you the biggest chocolate cake images that I can muster. Love you. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Hi Lovey Its your birthday on Tuesday. Hoping to go out to tea and celebrate for you. The weather has been glorious - thinking about getting out the cars and washing them. Pop wants us to start up the GT and get the juices flowing. Maybe we will just for you. Hoping you'll get it to start first time You used to Love scaring the neighbors with the sound of it firing up. Love you, miss you, Happy 49th Birthday XXXXXX

Hi Lovey, Been messing with all the Tax stuff -Takes so much time. Brandon says that there was a GT at the school yesterday. He said he heard it start up and his head whipped around.( 'V8's' - Must be ingrained in the kids genes) .Then he saw it drive out the carpark. We miss you getting yours out the shed and washing it before taking us all out for a cruise. Koby ordered a Holden!! I know you know because when I got home the Security system was offline - Frank Di fixing for me. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Hey Uncle Mark, well /dean & I have finally put the floors in the house and it looks totally awesome. We would have made you proud with all the hard work we did. I love you and missed so much it hurts but i Know you look down and smile at us. I will keep you updated with everything happenin Love you for ever and ever xoxoxox

A kangaroo jumped out at me yesterday, straight into the side of my new car!! No dents - how lucky am I ? It left a huge imprint of it's face and body all over the passenger door. No Joke - you could see the ears, snout and back - (must have been the mud on it. My Kluger looked just like a Qantas plane!! Thanks for looking over me. Could have been much worse. XXXXXXXXX PS Put the picture of the Dolphin coz it was the biggest animal picture they had!!

Hi Lovey Lots happening here and I know you are watching. Some of it you would like, some not - but there you go. You're not here to fix it. Its July again already. Sorting out some of the bullshit for EOFY. Im tired and I need a break. We all miss you terribly. Take care of us. XXXXXXXXX

Hi Lovey Thought about you all yesterday. Frank Rove had been dead 13 years. I know that you always missed him terribly and I had an image of you down at the cemetery having a beer with him. Hope you two are enjoying catching up about the old days.

Hi Lovey Went with Luke today while he bought himself a new car. I just don't know what you got out of that. Just a whole lot of guys standing around wanking on about wheels and such. OK He didn't get the blue one and I know very well that if you were here that would have happened. He settled for the much more sensible low km white one. Will he ever forgive me!! He's gonna soup it up though. Miss you terribly. XXXXXXXX

Eagles suck big time Lovey!!

You always had a very candid view of death and gave us so much info and tips along your way. When you went we knew your plans - what you wanted - for us as well as you. We knew what we had to do at the time and then later, and more importantly how you wanted it done. Some may think it was morbid but after the death of your beloved Frank, it was amazingly, another one of the brilliant moves you made in life. So Many don't realise that . It really helps to know that I don't have to look back with any regrets. While its still so hard to accept that you have gone I am happy knowing that the kids and I pretty well managed to get it right. (Still a few hurdles!!) I can now see where you were going with it all. I know that You are still looking after us every day -that you never stopped. You were spot on lovey - right down to the ones that would give and the ones that would take, the ones that would stay and the ones that would betray. We're doing OK. The kids and I miss you very much. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
