MOTHER'S  DAY  2023







Question from Geoff
I wonder who this married couple are ??
From Saturday 6th March 1943
Love to both of you from Geoff and Sharon and Brett
I guess you have seen Tanya wandering around Heaven
Yes, Sharon is a bit sad today - but Brett is a Terrific Kid
Seeing him later today and we will say 'hello' from you

Brenton
Nice pictures

Gavin
And Happy Mother's Day
Thinking of everyone especially those for whom it’s a damn difficult day

Comments for Sharon ... who is a Terrific Mother !!

Jim Mackail
Happy Mother’s Day to you, Sharon

Bernadette Raabe
Hello to the Beautiful Sharon
I just want to give her a big and wonderful wish for Mother's Day full stop
As my friend, Sharon has been like a Mother to all of her colleagues
And all of the people who are who are her friends, including myself
Plus I think that her colleagues and her family would think that she is the best thing since sliced bread
And makes everybody in her world feel better every day
As this lady is in it to keep us being positive in life
And bring a lot of joy and happiness when she is around being the person that she is
So, Sharon, have a great day with your husband and your son Brett
And get spoilt rotten on Mother's Day as that's what it's there for
Thanks

Geoff
Bernadette --- Absolutely Beautiful !!

Gloria June Denton
Thinking of you today, Sharon

Note to the "Workout Warriors"

As Sharon mentioned earlier, she headed down to Tanya's Stairs
Went for a short walk to the northern end of The Esplanade as a warmup
Then she completed  TEN  SETS  OF  STAIRS
( no photos / videos ... geoffrey just sat and watched !! )

Michelle Kottnig turned up
And gave these Beautiful Yellow Roses to Sharon
These are for both Tanya's 10 Year Anniversary and Mother's Day
Thank You Again, Michelle !!






Michelle Moseley
So kind and thoughtful

Saturday 9th September 2023

Today we received a big surprise from Brett
All he said to me was “take some photos”
For a long time Brett has wondered where his Grandfather's War Medals were
We knew they were in existence because we had a photo
Turns out Gavin, Geoff’s youngest brother, had them
In fact, Gavin organised to have the Medals and War Records sent to him
After many “be buggered” responses from their Dad,
he was finally given permission to organise the receipt of this important piece of history
It was a real labour of love by Gavin to get this done and have it beautifully presented
A keepsake for the Roneberg Family !!
What is also wonderful is their Dad, John Andrew Roneberg, was able to see them before he passed away
Brett was very keen to have the Medals and War Records and asked Gavin if he would consider giving them to him
Gavin lives overseas at the moment and they were in storage
Gavin very graciously agreed and arranged to have them sent to Brett
It was a very emotional moment for Geoff when he opened the parcel, as you will see from the photos
They will stay for us for a while until the time comes for Brett to have them in his own home
PS - when Brett carried the box in, Geoff thought it was a new laptop !! ... first photo above
