Outstanding effort, Sharon
You make it look easy ... but you had such strong motivation
Such a happy, sad and bittersweet day
Fabulous photos and videos
Thank you
Note from Sharon
Hi Erina
Thanks for looking at it all ... everything you said is true
except the 'easy' bit !!
Very glad I did it

Hi Sharon and Geoff
I just looked at the pics that you posted from the weekend and
am now a blubbering idiot and hoping that no one comes into the
shop in the next few minutes
I just need to tell you how moved I am by the closeness of your
family
I have never ever come across a family so supportive and loving
You should be so proud of how you raised Tanya and Brett and
how lucky they are to have two parents who obviously love each
other so deeply
Your love for each other moves me so much and I am sure is a
huge part in making Brett and Tanya the exceptional people that
they are
I know this is a sort of rambling message but what you have with
each other is something I can only aspire to and dream about
I miss Tanya so much ... some days, like today, it is so hard
to put on the 'game face'
I am sure you know what awesome parents you are and how much
love she has for you both
Sorry if this doesn't really make sense ... I just had to tell
you how special you both are
Note from Geoff
What you said DOES make sense
Sharon, Tanya and Brett are My World and What I live For ...
one part of that is now missing
It is almost impossible to accept, and it is just "day-to-day"
at the moment
I miss my daughter every day and talk and even sometimes yell
at her ... I want her back, even for just one last really, really
tight hug
Thanks for your note, it means a lot to me
Note from Sharon
I have just finished looking at everything and I too am a blubbering
mess
We have hundreds of photos of us as a happy family and these
recent sad family photos are hard to take
But they do show our love for each other
I am so proud of Tanya and Brett ... of their love for each other
and us
Trying to live through this terrible time without Geoff or Brett
would be impossible
We are so so sad and you are right ... putting on the 'game face'
is not easy ... and no 'game face' for me in some of those photos
!!
Thanks for your note ... it means a lot

Dear Geoff
Thank you very much for the update
I feel privileged to be included and am so inspired by Sharon's
determination and strength ... not to mention her fitness level
which puts me to shame !!
You are all to be congratulated, for I see that 'Team Tanya'
is exactly that ... an ongoing team of friends and family and
community members all taking part in whatever way they can to
bring comfort as they share in the loss of your beautiful daughter
How proud she would be to see the effect, and the community togetherness,
she has caused
Please tell Sharon I'm sorry ... I forgot to give her a hug before
she left work today
I wanted to wish you well for Saturday as you remember Tanya's
birthday
It is not an easy thing to face ... and with the anniversary
of my mother's death on Monday, I feel for you all the more
There were times when I've prayed that I wouldn't cry anymore,
but I've come to the conclusion that tears and crying is absolutely
necessary and my right to express my grief
However I still pray for God's peace, that is beyond my understanding,
to face each day ... may His peace be with you also
You are loved so very much and the way you approach each milestone
is truly amazing
I'm thinking of you with love

Amazing job, Geoff
No words to say how proud I am of Sharon (and Kahlia) but I hope
she knows
Love you all

SO PROUD OF YOU
Cannot even put into words how proud I am
Tanya is 'fist pumping' some clouds up there
You are amazing, Sharon |
