Note
When Frank and Shirley took up dairy farming on their own, May gave them Snow, Snow became one of their better cows leaving many high producing descendants in their herd. . May did baby-sitting, volunteered as a cook at Portsea camps for retarded children, she also belonged to the Friendly Circle. May’s interests were many, she played cards at Drouin East, Senior Citizens, Shady Creek, VRI, RSL, Fairview Homes and even at Katandra West. She transported many friends to and from cards. She took a great interest in Lionel Rose and Johnny Famechon fights, and backed the occasional horse in the Melbourne and Caulfield Cups. She loved to follow the cricket and barracked for the Red & Whites (Swans). In the late 70’s May moved into Flat 30 Fairview Homes, in 1981 the house at Bowen Street was sold. May enjoyed good health and continued with her interests. She knitted many pairs of socks mainly for her son-in-laws and Grandson-in-laws, many are still being worn. April 1995 opened a new chapter in May’s life when Eric contacted her, and they met after parting in 1928 when Eric was a baby. Since then the friendship has been wonderful. Eric’s family, Lorna, Lianne, Lindsay and Anthea and their families have truly been part of May’s life. In 1995, May had to move into Cooinda Nursing Home, where she spend her last few years. We are all most grateful that May remained of sound mind and could converse on almost any subject with her visitors, her favourites were family, sport and politics. When David passed away on the 18th March 1970, although separated for over 26 years, May took care of the arrangements to give him a decent burial as she also did for his brother Bob who passed away in October 1974. May was a kind and easy-going lady, who lived for her family and friends. She got great pleasure from her 14 Grandchildren and 26 Great grandchildren, and was always keen to hear of their achievements and worries.
