Mom: 29 November 1948 - 17 December 2005

Mom passed away very peacefully about an hour ago, just after sunset on Saturday night in Sydney. Dad's just phoned to let us know and says the initial feeling is relief that she's at peace and at rest.

Basic plans are underway for a memorial service later in the week in Australia, he'll try to fly out on Christmas day to spend time with her parents and then come down to Cape Town for the funeral service.

Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers during her illness, for your financial support that enabled us to spend a wonderful time with her while she was still able to enjoy it, and for being there for all of us.

Rest in peace mom. When we next see you, you'll be all new and shiny, forever free of pain and sickness. We so look forward to that day!
