My shared memory comes from my childhood visits to my Grandparents home in Beazley Street Ryde. I can recall my Grandmother Dacia doting on her husband George James and their German-Sheppard dog named Princess. I also remember home grown vegetables and stunning carnations, tears over un-eaten brussel sprouts, her proud smile over her daughter Kathy’s navy hat, the silence needed when ‘A Country Practice’ was on the television, and pure butter in a yellow tub on the rectangular kitchen table. Dacia; Rest-in-peace now and forever with your beloved George. With love from Kerrie Collier xox
