Dear Aunty Jan,
It’s hard to find the right words for someone who showed so much courage and determination.
I have such fond memories of being a kid at Nan’s when you would call from Australia. I truly loved those times afterward when Nan would tell me everything about your life over there. Looking back, I only wish I hadn’t been so shy, I wish I would have spoken up more and asked you all the questions I had in my head.
I have always thought you must have been so brave and adventurous to move to the other side of the world.
I still remember the excitement of receiving birthday cards from you that had traveled all that way, always with those Australian stamps on them.
I’ve often thought about the incredible sense of adventure you must have had to leave Liverpool and build a life so far away.
You taught us all what it means to be truly brave, dignified, and courageous. We will carry your memory and your adventurous spirit with us always.
Rest in peace, Jan.
All our love to Tony, Brendan, Stacey, and the family.
Love,
David
Dear Jan, you’ve been part of my life for 61 years . After showing so much determination in fighting your illness for so long, I can not believe the day has finally come to say goodbye. I will always remember you as having a bubbly personality. Never afraid to give your opinions. Always up for a laugh. I am sure that one day we will meet again. Your loving brother in law Bernard.
Tony Brendan Stacey thinking of you all Janet was a special lady with a heart of gold my condolences love heath and my family
Dear Aunty Janet
I am so glad I got the opportunity to come over to Australia last year to see you, Uncle Tony, Brendan and Lauren, Stacey, Jay and Remi and all the extended family and friends. Although there were days when you were poorly you still managed to laugh and we crammed as much as we could in the short time me and Aunty Rose were there xxx thankyou for my 50th birthday present at Shoalhaven Zoo I’ll treasure that forever and what made it more special is that you were well enough to come along too🐨 Also the day at Kembla Races 🐴🍾🥂 again you were on form another treasured memory.
Even when we went to the hospital appointments you still remained positive.
In one of our last conversations when you were in hospital last month we spoke about me coming back over later in this year and its really sad that you won’t be there when I report in for Steak duties
💔💔 we’ll make sure you are with us in spirit though🫶😊
You fought till the end but now its time to rest 💔
Lots of love Jacqui ❤️
Dear Janet, you fought such a courageous and inspiring battle, and I feel so grateful to have known you. I will always cherish the memories of travelling to England together and how warmly you welcomed me into your English family—it meant more than words can say. I’ll miss our chats, your warmth, and your beautiful spirit.
You will be so deeply missed.
Love Mags
To my sister Janet. The day you closed your eyes you took a part of me with you. You are now my guardian angel. I will know it’s you as I will hear your voice saying love you May don’t cry. This is not goodbye this is until we meet again. Xxxx
To our brave Aunty Janet, we are so sad to say goodbye but will always carry the special memories with us. We will treasure the visits and happy times we shared over the years and the happiness you brought to us all.
I will treasure the beautiful necklace you gave me for my birthday, a gift that will forever remind me of you and your kindness and thoughtfulness.
We also have the memories of the Chester races trip and how lovely you looked in mum’s dress you borrowed. I know you wore mums wedding dress for your own wedding, how special and love how after all those years you were still sharing dresses 🥰
Even from the other side of the world in Australia, Penelope and Noah enjoyed their FaceTime calls with Aunty Janet and Nanny. You made them feel special with your thoughtful gifts. Penelope loved sending you a video modelling the earrings you got her and Noah has his pocket money tucked away in the spider man wallet you got him.
You showed incredible strength and courage throughout your battle and fought so hard with bravery and determination, and we admired you for that.
You will live on through us all in the precious memories and stories we share.
Until we meet again, rest peacefully Aunty Janet, all our love Joanne, Moses, Penelope & Noah ❤️
A truly kind soul who brought comfort and happiness to everyone around them. You are an inspiration to us all. Rest peacefully Janet lots of love Jeenie ❤️
