Aunty Joan
Vale dear Aunty Joan, wife and mother extraordinaire. Always interested in people. Terrific support to her husband, an Ag Scientist, and university lecturer, who worked in Tanzania amongst other places. I used to enjoy going to their place for Sunday night supper after church, meeting lots of other people, both young and old. Amazing Christian couple. Thanks for your faith and hard work, at keeping in touch with students, passing on advice, always welcomed, and for caring about people, especially Doug, and me, at times. Sad I was unable to attend the service in Melbourne. Will always remember you both, and your amazing, and extended family. May God bless those who grieve, but know that you have pleased God with your life time of service to others, and enriched those of us who knew you both. Our lives will never be the same for knowing you and experiencing a very different way of life that is becoming less common in these modern times.
