Annette Margaret Brooks

I met Annette in 1990 when she took the trouble to come to my house to introduce herself when I was newly arrived in Kuala Lumpur. We became good friends, as did our children, and after we left Malaysia we kept in touch, albeit from opposite sides of the world. She stayed with me a couple of times when she came to Australia, and I stayed with her when I was in the UK. Even when we hadn't seen each other for a while, we could always catch up just where we left off. Annette was so helpful and supportive when I was going through some tough times, and so strong and resilient when she was going through her own difficulties. Although I haven't seen her recently, I will miss knowing that she is there, and I will always remember her for her friendship, her humour and her wisdom. Much love to all the family.
