To our Loving & Jovial Aunty Judy, Thanks for the great times and memories created over many, many years. And, thanks for the love and friendship you gave to Dad & Mum (John & Ailsa Grose) during those last years of both their lives. Especially to Mum, when you and Aunty Izzy used to visit her on Fridays, at the rest home, to play - Rummikub. Your visits, were the highlight of Mum’s week. And I, Kevin Grose, used to enjoy the company of two of my adorable Aunties, where we had heaps of fun and often reminisced about the events of times passed. Rest in Peace dear Judy. From The Grose Family - Dennis, Stephen, Warren, Lionel, Kevin, Sheryl and Gary (who is deceased).
We love you Nana. We are so glad we had the opportunity to visit you in New Zealand in July 2019 and take you and Aunty Issy out to the Quarry Art Exhibition. We're especially grateful you were able to meet your great grandchildren. Rubiaceae, Dominic and Lucas. From Richard and Michelle
Thank you for your beautiful spirit and lovely works throughout my life. We will miss you dearly Lisa
