In loving memory of OUR MUM Alice Thackeray who sadly passed away on 12th November 2015

A wife, a mother, a grandma too,
This is the legacy we have from you.
You taught us love and how to fight,
You gave us strength, you gave us might.
A stronger person would be hard to find,
And in your heart, you were always kind.
You fought for us all in one way or another,
Not just as a wife not just as a mother.
For all of us you gave your best,
Now the time has come for you to rest.
So go in peace, you've earned your sleep,
Your love in our hearts, we'll eternally keep.

Our hearts are broken,
All our love now and forever.
Tony, John, Jean, Janet, Michael & Joan xxxxxx

Dearest Jo,

My deepest condolences and heartfelt wishes to you and your family! With great sadness I read your news and have tried to reach you: please accept my short note until we have a chance to speak together.

Briefly, I'm one month post-op from liver surgery; the process is slow. My computer/phone time is limited. Another two months of rest and more exams.

I hope the love of family and friends coupled with your memories will serve to ease your pain during these most difficult days. I'm certain your presence continues to provide a brightest light for those around you. May you take comfort in knowing how much your Mum loved you, Jo: and for your gentle words, ways, and all your efforts to insure her well-being, great thanks!

With Love

Jo – aka Joan! So sorry to receive this. But, I know she was sick for a long time, so passing to a more wonderful place is a lovelier thing to do.

I know she was loved, I know she will be missed, but I know you are grateful for having her all this long while.

Life goes on with a heavier heart, but all will be well in time.
God Bless, and come visit Palm Beach one of these days.

Dear Jo

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your mom... Losing a mom is so hard. She was so lucky to have you and she knew it every moment. She's outgrown her body, and transitioning to whatever comes next. She's no longer bed- bound. Please know my heart is with you and the boys!
I'll be in town the second weekend in December and see if you're in town. I just made plans.

Sending all of my love!

Dear Jo, Carl, Craig, Aaron and family, I never met your mum in person but through you, I learned to know her. Look back on all the good memories you were able to have and smile at the fact that you were able to share such beautiful moments with her. A person that departs from this earth never truly leaves, for they are still alive in our hearts and minds, through us, they live on, your mum will not be forgotten. My sincere and deepest condolences; our hearts and prayers go out to you and your family.
With love, Gina, Josh, Nicole and Gabby Xxoo

Dear Jo, Carl, Craig and Aaron,
We are so saddened by the loss of your grandma, mum and our dear Alice. When the kids were little we used enjoy times romping all over with them, your mom and mine. Oh, the places we took them! When the kids got older, we continued romping with just us and the moms. They both cherished the picture of them together having lunch at Fridays, and kept it framed and displalyed in their respective homes. When I lost my mom, your mum was there for me and told me I would never be "mom/mum - less". She kept to her word. This is such a difficult time, but we will keep them in our hearts and and are comforted by the fact that we know they are in heaven together looking down on us, smiling, forever enjoying eachother's company and catching up.
We love you all and will always be here for you.
Cindy, Stuart, Jordan, Wade and Harrison
