My friend, how can I express how devastated I feel. For over 25 years you were such a wonderful, sweet, loving and humble person who was always there for all of us with whatever we needed at the time, compassion. a gorgeous smile, cheeky laugh , loving hugs and kisses or just a companionable silence and you had such a joy for life.
I feel blessed to have had you and Tom with us in France and was looking forward to your next visit but will have to
make do with remembering your joy at all things French and especially your love of Paris. Te me manqueras toujours mon amie ( I will miss you always)

Dearest Stephen, Tom, Jack and Elly
For more than 30years we were blessed to have Dot as a member of our ‘Centrelink’ team. Her compassion, strength, resilience and care stood out as her social work influence was felt far and wide. Her legacy will live on for many years.
But it was it was her warmth and care for others which made her a true friend, always putting others before herself and never being one to complain. I was privileged to have worked with Dot, but even more so to have known her as a true friend, mentor and confidant.
My sincere condolences to you, her Mum and extended family at this most difficult time.

Dot was a shining light for all that knew her. Her smile, joy of life and family were so very precious and you could not help but feel happy and cared for in her presence. I was fortunate to work with Dot for many years and her compassion for those who needed a hand up not only extended to customers but all those that had the opportunity to work with her. My sincerest condolences to her family. To know Dot was to really know JOY. Much love Sharon

From the bottom of my heart, my sincere condolences. I loved Dot and am privileged to have spent time with her- that’s true of anyone that knew her. Her warmth and friendship in our workplace meant a lot. An inspiring social worker, and beautiful mother…she often spoke about Tom & Jack & her family so dearly. There is only one sweet, strong, caring Doti and the world is better that she was in it. Dot you will be very missed.
