Deepest sympathies to Phil, his brothers and sisters, Justine and family. Shirley was a warm, giving and effervescent mum. She always welcomed Phil’s mates to Hawk’s Hill. Everyone was welcome. Rest in Peace.

Our condolences to Phil, Justine and family.Thank you Shirley for so many special memories over the years in the care of such beautiful people in such a special place.
In memories love lives on.

So many fond & fun memories! Attending the Yalgoo Centenary with us swagging it & Shirley sleeping across the back seat. Camping in the Kimberley with the kids all falling asleep to the soft tones of Shirley telling Muzza her life story over a bottle of wine under the stars. Climbing up through the gorges with Shirley swimming below in the clear blue pools between the fern covered gorge walls. So hospitable at Hawks Hill every time I turned up in the big smoke. Sharing her ‘family’ Subaru won for a $1 raffle ticket bought the day before! Always writing & drawing. Received great letters from Shirley always with a humorous sketch or three.
I will be forever grateful to Shirley & Bert & family for sharing their beautiful garden home, the china & the artworks, the peacocks, bottlebrushes & roses, the studio & the boathouse. Truly an end of an era.
Love to you all. Wendy

Our sincerest condolences to Phil, Just, Millie, Jack and the Whittle family. Sending our love and thinking of you all today xx
