To Sylvia and the Osborne family, I send my love and will be thinking of you all today.
Though I didn’t know Uncle Albie very well, the few times I spent in his company are warm memories. He had a kind heart and a cheeky sparkle that could put anyone at ease. He always made me smile and feel really welcome, and I’ll remember him for that. May he rest in peace.
Dear Sylvia, Julie , Neville and all the Osborne family, so much love and deepest sympathy, RIP Albie
Sue and Ron Death

So good that you recently had your very special wedding anniversary.
Thinking of you.
Kind regards

Sorry to hear the passing of Albie. Sadly this unique hardworking generation that built up great farms from nothing is twindling. Here’s to Albie and hopefully Bill Snr is catching up with him for a yarn and drink.
