I won’t remember you with sadness
I won’t remember you with tears
I’ll remember all the good times
We shared throughout the years

Nessie was not only my loving godmother, but a lady I admired greatly. Nessie taught me, many lessons in life but most of all …. love. Nessie and Bill treated me like the daughter she never had, there was nothing like a cup of tea and a Nessie hug.
I will forever cherish the many summers spent with Nessie and Bill and of course my grandmother Greta, a loving sister to Nessie. We spent many summers touring Hastings and scouring all the antique jewellery shops whilst Bill sat frustrated in the car being told we would only be an hour.

In honour and recognition, I will remember you in your namesake Sadie x Evanne Donnan Sunday 23 March 2025
Thank you for being a wonderful Aunt I cherish the memories of spending time with you and Bill growing up. Forever in our thoughts.
Time to rest now Ness love you always. Tina, Steve and family Perth Australia Sunday 23 March 2025
