In memory of Kathryn Ferella

By Sandro Ferella

I am raising funds for Dementia Australia in memory of my loved one.

Thank you for donating to Dementia Australia in memory of our loved one.

All donations received will support the work of Dementia Australia to make a significant difference for people living with dementia, their families and carers through vital support, services, education, training and research.

Kathryn's mother has dementia and Kathryn was deeply affected by her mothers condition. It distressed her and also struck a fear that one day she might also be affected. One of her wishes was that one day an effective early detection test could be developed and curing the disease could one day be a reality. In memory of Kathryn please donate to this worthy cause and all funds collected are being directed to research.

Thank you for your generosity.  

Thank you to my Supporters

Hi Sandro From all the Meadowbank lot. Everyone was so generous at Kathryn's memorial afternoon tea. Her garden is looking lovely, the grass tree looks strong and we have added some new plants. A lucky jade, a rosemary for remembrance and a little plant with lots of pink flowers for the bees. Even the coffeeshop guy Bencino wants to donate some plants because she was so lovely. All our love to the boys and yourselves and have a wonderful Christmas. Bec and the Meadowbank Team

Dear Sandro, Michael and Tom Kathryn was a dear friend and esteemed colleague, a compadre through book club and we enjoyed the times we caught up with you at Angela and Graham's place. Kathryn was an extraordinary woman, gifted teacher and loved by her students. She will continue to be loved and missed forever. We are blessed for knowing her and will treasure the moments and laughter we shared. I spoke with her in the holidays at length and then she sent me a picture of herself a few days before she died. I had posted her a necklace for her 60th Bday. We don't have words to help at this time but understand Your loss and grief. We hope every loving memory will make life easier to bear one day at a time. If there's anything at all we can do please call on us. Our love and prayers Diane and Noel D'Souza

In loving memory of Kathryn Ferella. I came across the writing below just a few weeks ago. I think Kathryn would have liked it. I hope so. A Sacred Pilgrimage Birth is a beginning and death is a destination. But life is a journey: from childhood to maturity and youth to age; from innocence to awareness and ignorance to knowing: from foolishness to discretion and then, perhaps to wisdom; from weakness to strength or strength to weakness - and often, back again. From health to sickness and back we pray, to health again; from offense to forgiveness, from loneliness to love, from joy to gratitude, from pain to compassion, and grief to understanding - from fear to faith; from defeat to defeat to defeat - until, looking backward or ahead we see that victory lies not at some high place along the way, but in having made the journey, stage by stage, a sacred pilgrimage. Birth is a beginning and death is a destination. But life is a journey, a sacred pilgrimage - made stage by stage - from birth to death to life everlasting. - by Alvin Fine
