  8. Kathleen, a wonderful woman. Warm and welcoming to all and I loved calling in and talking. You were mum to one of my best mates and if by some chance Steve’s not around when you knock on heaven’s door, he’s just out the back having a sip. You did a wonderful job with your (extended) family, enjoy your eternal reward.
