Celebration of Gaby’s Life

 auntyuta  Life in Australia, Memories  July 14, 2014 1 Minute

Gaby died on the 15th of July 2012. This is going to be two years ago tomorrow. I copied here a post I published two years ago as a celebration of her life. The pictures show a lot of her carers, friends and family. We all remember you, Gaby.

Give thanks to the

Lord, call on his

name; make known

among the nations

what he has done.

Sing to him, sing

praise to him; tell of

all his wonderful acts.

Psalm 105; 1-2

Auntie, Sister. Grandmother, Great-Grandmother, Mother and Wife of German Descent I’ve lived in Australia since 1959 together with my husband Peter. We have four children, eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. I started blogging because I wanted to publish some of my childhood memories. I am blogging now also some of my other memories. I like to publish some photos too as well as a little bit of a diary from the present time. Occasionally I publish a story with a bit of fiction in it.

      Sincerely,
      Aunty UtaReply
2. auntyutaJuly 15, 2014 at 10:14 am EditI thank all the carers for the outstanding care they’ve been giving Gaby over many years. I love you all!Reply
3. elizabeth2560July 15, 2014 at 11:38 amEditI am sure you will always miss her and love her, and there is so much loss and sadness.
   I admire you for your celebrating of Gaby’s life and to think of her life in positive ways.Reply
   1. auntyutaJuly 15, 2014 at 12:40 pm EditHi Elizabeth, yes in lots of ways Gaby made sure that we are always going to remember her. She has been very much a family person, even for all these years when she lived apart from her family. Over the years it became more and more apparent, how brave she actually was. Thinking back over her life now, her braveness is something that maybe we did sometimes not fully comprehend but took it somehow for granted. I think she deserves that we celebrate her life, for she showed us how to enjoy life, even when it means to have to overcome a lot of difficulties.Reply

   1. auntyutaJuly 19, 2014 at 4:13 pm EditTo be honest, Linda, last year July 15 did not stick as much in our minds. Maybe the memory of her is felt a bit more every year! Reply

I love you all!’ Looking at the photos again, I am reminded again of the excellent care Gaby has been given and how this enrich the last years of her life! Tomorrow is going to be the 8th anniversary of her dying. Gaby, you are not forgotten!
   Here is something else I wrote in the comment section six years ago:
   ‘in lots of ways Gaby made sure that we are always going to remember her. She has been very much a family person, even for all these years when she lived apart from her family. Over the years it became more and more apparent, how brave she actually was. Thinking back over her life now, her braveness is something that maybe we did sometimes not fully comprehend but took it somehow for granted.
