To all the family, my deepest sympathy . Please know you are in my thoughts at this time. May you stay close and comfort each other in the days to come. How lucky I have been to have had Trish as my friend for the past many years. Such a kind person, whose children were always in her thoughts. She had both a wilful spirit and a gentle heart. The original Redhead. She will be missed. XX

I will truly miss our chats, fun banter & Tim Tam slams wont be the same without you
Your friendship was unconditional, kind, never judgemental but always with open arms. Truly a beautiful soul & I know the angels are the lucky ones to have you now
