In Memoriam
MOLLOY, Greg (Fluff):
Taken too soon one year ago today.
Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same
But as God calls us one by one the chain will link again
Love always, your four sisters Dale, Julie, Debbie and Gina.
MOLLOY, Greg:
One year ago today.
I was supposed to spend the rest of my life with you
And then I realised you spent the rest of your life with me.
I smile because I know you loved me
And if I had my life to live over again
I would find you sooner so that I could love you longer.
Missing you – Heather.
MOLLOY, Greg:
You are forever in our hearts and minds wherever we go.
You taught us all to take in each and every moment of life, to enjoy and cherish it. Thank you Greg, we all miss you so much.
Lots of Love
Mike, Erin, Pippa, Beauden, Brayden, Marieka, Riley, Ben, Katie, Noah, and Kyla.
STRONACH, Ken:
(Formerly Robin Hood Milkbar)
The day you left our hearts were broken, 14 years later and it’s still not mended.
Missing you every day
Love always – Andrea, Nathan, Kadeem and Deven xxx
