Thank you for having a live stream of Uncle Murray's funeral. I learned a lot more about "Douglas" at the funeral (virtually) today, and I feel incredibly proud and privileged to have known him and Aunty June and been part of their extended family. The photo I have attached (for those who don't instantly recognise it!) was taken at Diane and Wayne's wedding, where I was a flower girl. I am with Mum and Dad - Clare and Eric Lilly. I still have this dress and the pretty necklace Diane gave me. My heart felt condolences to Uncle Murray's family, and to others who were close to him. Kathrine Laurence (nee Lilly)
