To Gus and Family our deepest sympathy of the passing of Gwen may she rest in peace.
To Peter and Gwen’s family, deepest sympathy. When Covid started, I would walk past their place often. Peter would always give me the thumbs up and Gwen would wave out. After a while I decided to call in and say hello to them. We had a chat. When I had done some baking I would drop some into them as well, have another chat and off I would go. I hadn’t been walking so much in the last year, but would toot when I drove past. Just a really lovely couple. Eileen Julian
