Sunday 29th December 2013 ... Jane Cairns Hi Sharon and Geoff Thank you for sending us this link to Tanya's Page ... HERE Geoff, you are amazing and hope that your continuing dedication to Tanya and the whole family through your web page gives you some comfort We can only imagine the heartache that you and your family feel, especially at times like Christmas But Christmas may as well be every day because the loss is no less felt on any other day really Gary and I send our love and strength to you all We will raise a glass to Tanya this holiday season and please know that you are always in our hearts and thoughts Love always Monday 30th December 2013 ... Rodney and Sue Roneberg Hi Geoff and Sharon Belated Merry Christmas to you all Thanks for your update What a beautiful thing "Tanya's Wall" is ... such a thoughtful thing to do ... it must have been a hard day for everyone ... HERE We had a great Christmas ... Michael flew back to Perth yesterday I'd like to say Happy New Year to you and your family but it doesn't seem appropriate Perhaps 'Have a Peaceful New Year ' would be better ... and we hope that 2014 can bring you some justice for your girl Cheers Note from Sharon Hi Sue and Rod Thanks for your good wishes We were reflecting today on this time twelve months ago ... we had no idea of the horror and sadness the year would bring We have made it through nearly eight months and will continue to 'keep on keeping on' "Tanya’s Wall" was the most wonderful gift from Brett and Kahlia ... the day wasn’t easy, that's for sure Tanya’s friends still write on her Facebook Page every day and it helps us to know how much she is loved and missed She inspired so many people to live a full life, appreciate life, take some chances, push yourself and love your family and friends, be fit, healthy and happy Her "Class of '92" friends invited me to High Tea with them last Saturday ... HERE They had all caught up at their Twenty Year Reunion in October 2012 ... HERE When I asked them about their “getting together” regularly, they said it is since May when Tanya died One girl said “she saved my life" ... she was so ashamed of her life and from that moment she changed ... she has lost fourty one kg And another girl has lost thirty eight kg These girls and others run, hike, swim and play together with their husbands and families and I am proud that Tanya inspired them We miss her desperately but Geoff wrote something special today on our Facebook Page and he is right Here it is below ................................An Open Letter to the Year 2013 ................................Dear Sir ................................You hurt us so badly ... you broke our hearts ................................You took Our Precious Daughter, Tanya Roneberg, and we will never get over it ................................But you, sir, lost !! ................................You didn't and couldn't take away 'The What' and 'The Who' and 'The Memories' of Tanya ................................It is the first morning of 2014 now and it is a beautiful day ................................And She Lives !! ... in the hearts of her Family and Wonderful Friends and she always will ................................Get into history ... you will not be remembered ................................Geoff and Sharon I feel her around me ... I think of her all the time and I try to live my life like she did, appreciating everything around us Glad you had a Great New Year and you were able to spend it with family I went into the Cairns Esplanade with Brett and Kahlia and some special friends We watched the fireworks ... it was a beautiful evening and I am glad I went When I came home Geoff and I walked down to our beach at Trinity and saw the New Year in there sitting near Tanya’s Special Place It was peaceful ... HERE 2014 will be challenging for us, missing Tanya and waiting for some justice Thanks again for writing and we hope 2014 is a good year for you all Tuesday 31st December 2013 ... Jacqui Searson All the best for 2014, Sharon and Geoff Hope it's a lovely night at "Tanya's Special Spot" tonight ... HERE You have been an inspiration to me this year and I hold a very special place in my heart for you both despite the fact I've never met you personally Much love Note from Sharon Thank you, Jacqui I spent a lovely couple of hours with Brett, Kahlia and some special friends and then Geoff and I went down to "Tanya's Stairs" ... HERE I was quite tearful when the time, date and year changed on my phone It was beautiful down there and today it is a stunning day I went for a swim and I will always take the time to appreciate the beauty of the things around me and the people in our life who care about us ... of whom you are one I do it for me, for us and for Tanya Much love to you and your family too Wednesday 1st January 2014 ... Beverley Wilson Happy New Year, Sharon and Geoff Thursday 2nd January 2014 ... Andria Rowe Hi Sharon, and hope you had a good New Year ... mine was reflective Your "Letter to 2013" was lovely ................................An Open Letter to the Year 2013 ................................Dear Sir ................................You hurt us so badly ... you broke our hearts ................................You took Our Precious Daughter, Tanya Roneberg, and we will never get over it ................................But you, sir, lost !! ................................You didn't and couldn't take away 'The What' and 'The Who' and 'The Memories' of Tanya ................................It is the first morning of 2014 now and it is a beautiful day ................................And She Lives !! ... in the hearts of her Family and Wonderful Friends and she always will ................................Get into history ... you will not be remembered ................................Geoff and Sharon I'm going to try to live 2014 as best as I can Really live and be thankful that I am here and have people who care about me I've started my training again with motivation and enthusiasm, and thinking ahead to what I'd like to achieve Hope this year brings you and Geoff some peace and happiness Note from Sharon I am so happy to hear that, Andria Your words reflect how I feel ... you said it perfectly So many people care about us I don't feel alone in my sadness but at the same time I want to do a few things ... just small steps ... coffee with friends, a bit of stitching, reading Have even been for a couple of swims I went out on New Years Eve for the first time in twenty five years Just visited with Brett and Kahlia and a few friends at the Mantra on The Esplanade It was fun and I even liked the fireworks which I can't usually be bothered with Brett's surprise for us on Christmas Day was wonderful ... we couldn't believe it !! ... HERE If you like you can come and have a look one day ... Brett said I can take whoever I like, whenever I like !! This year will still be tough but in between the tough times we hope to find some peace By the way ... "Tanya's Letter on Christmas Day" + "Note on New Years Eve" + "Letter to 2013" ... all written by Geoff I loved that "2013 Letter" too Talk soon |
