SMITH, Rita Mae

Sorry to read about Rita’s passing – one of the ’29’s’ group, sadly missed, from the Bright and Marshall families

Dear Mum /Rita,
So sorry I’m unable to attend but Verna will say “Goodbye” for me. Now at Peace and reunited with your beloved Ken.
Your loving Son-in-Law Alan

Dear Nana, rest in peace, thanks for the great times, for the amazing farm memories, for being an awesome grandmother, we miss you, Dwayne Alison and Kids – Perth

Loving Nanna to Dwayne (and me), great Nanna to Rachael, Christopher and Chinah.

I’ll always remember your wonderful bright smile which lit up the room whenever we visited you and Pa. We loved visiting you and if we lived closer we would of been there every week or two.

We kept you on your toes preparing meals with you in the kitchen (Dwayne only exploded the pressure cooker full of potatoes all over the ceiling once)
Your long evenings staying up with Dwayne to watch the TV so that the TV and box were turned off in the right order :)

You so loved the visits to the cemetery with us as well where you told us who all the relatives were & we gave each grave some beautiful fresh roses from your garden.

A visit was not complete without a drive out to the farm and dairy yards with you and Pa. Reflecting on past days and Retelling stories. Dwayne has wonderful memories of visiting the farm with his brothers when he was a young child. Pa driving the boys around the paddocks in a crate behind the tractor – bouncing and hanging on.
To this day, whenever Dwayne smells cow poo he talks about those happy days spending time with the dairy cows at the milking sheds with you and Pa so many years ago :)

Well Nanna, you will now be able to go and have a cuppa and endless chats with Pa and all those relatives and friends :)

I’m sending big hugs to you and a huge kiss right on the lips.

Rest in peace Nanna – we’ll visit you again.

Love
Alison

Dearest Mum,
Thank you Mum for all you did for us. We may not have always seen eye but you always only wanted what was best for us and for that we are truly grateful. Rest Peacefully with our Dad.
Your loving daughters Verna and Rita 🌹🌹🌹🌹

Dear Verna, Rita and families thinking of you all on the passing of your dear mum. Sincere condolences Dorothy McFarland, Gayle & David

Dear Nana,

I hope that under you pillow is a pile of sugar so you won’t have to keep hoarding the sachets. I hope you get to play card games to your hearts content, even though I swear you made up half the rules just so you’d win. And most of all, I hope that wherever you are, it is with pa.

Love,
Your grand daughter
