Default Bron Andrews (Aussiebron), 1945-2009

This morning I received an email from Bron's daughter that her mother had passed away in Melbourne, Friday evening, March 13. She had been gravely ill and the doctors said she suffered from multiple organ failure. She had had PD for about 17 years, along with heart problems.

Bron had friends at many PD web sites, including this one, and she will be remembered for her sense of humor, creativity, and courage.

I will forward any messages of sympathy and comfort that anyone would like to send the family. They can either be posted here or sent to me in a private message.

May she rest in peace. She is free from her Parkinson's.

Judith

Dear Judith,
Thank you so much for posting the news of Brons passing, which I read with great sadness. She was such a big hearted person that it is strange to think that she is no longer here. Through all her health issues she showed great warmth, strength of character, and good humour. In difficult times she showed me the best of friendship - cloaked in wit and her aussie can't keep me down persona she hid a real down to earth wisdom that made her a gem among people.

Bless you Bron as you journey home...... and thanks for the time we travelled the same path.......

Judith, warmest wishes to Brons family, my thoughts and prayers are with them tonight.

with love
Lindy

Default Please accept my condolences

Bron's sparkle could be seen all the way across many waters, for she was an encourager of others. I met her a few times in the chat rooms and will miss those upbeat encounters. Peace to you, family members, and thanks for sharing her with us.

Bron had a wonderful sense of humor and was a delight to talk to.
She will be missed.
God speed Bron

Bron was one of the wisest and blunt women I have ever had the pleasure of matching wits with. I am truly saddened by this news. She left behind a legacy that cannot be equaled.

Here's to you, m'dear...

This is NOT pegleg. This is Stitcher/Carolyn using Peg's laptop and I don't see where it log her out and log me in...so...



Judith, thank you for sharing this sad news. Bron was indeed a very special lady.

I know that the "Edge" will miss her greatly as will any other PWP area she touched.
