Enid Mary Jones

R.I.P
Enid Mary Jones
27.11.18 - 10.3.12

Enid went to God 10.3.12 around 12.15pm. She was ready, but put up a big fight. One strong Mother...... that one!

Scott came down from Broome and Jeremy, Scott & Travis  spent Friday with her as did Peter and Stephen.. Pam spent all of Thursday with her and the staff were OUTSTANDING and sat with her on Friday night when they were off duty and popped in all day every day to see her, she is going to be missed and has left a BIG hole at the Nursing Home, as she use to give them all the arounds of the kitchen. I think she would have been happy with the send off.

She use to say when we were fighting (which was often) and she got mad with me she'd say when I go just say "I did my best" well there you go I have done it. "YOU DID YOUR BEST" 

I got there just in time on Saturday at noon. She look great and very peaceful and will be buried in white as she very fussy about being clean and looking her best.

  1. Dear Jenny,



    Bless you and Bless Dear Enid, I am actually having to come to Mandurah on the 24th of March and was going to visit her then. I spoke to her in January and she told me how much she so wanted to go. I will miss her presence, she was such a beautiful soul to me. I have never forgotten our times together and her strength, I hope that she is with Dorothy. The fiercest fire burns the strongest steel… She taught me that line and it has given me strength in hard times. I was feeling sad this morning and couldn’t explain it, I am sure that I know why now.



    Please let me know when the funeral is.



    May you be filled with a deep peace of knowing that she is where she wanted to be after such a long battle with the body.

    God Bless you at this time, it is so hard to lose one’s Mother however philosophical we can be.

    Please give my love to the boys, it will be a big time in their lives.

    With love and blessings

    Lynne Marie Yorke

    PS Thank you so much for letting me know.

  2. Hello Love,

    Wish I had some words to help you through this very difficult time. Enid is at peace now and free from that suffering and torment.


    You certainly can feel that you always did all you could for your dear old Mum.


    Jen, I don't know where you will have the funeral but if you would like to have a wake at our place I would be more than happy . I mean that. We are home on Thursday. I don't imagine it will be before then. Come and stay for a few days if you can. Please let me know if there is anything we can do.


    Our love and thoughts are with you and the family.

  10. Mom sent me an email last evening to say your Mom died on Friday. My heart aches for you. I know Auntie Enid had a long run, and had grown weary. I wish you peace of mind, and peace of heart, Jen.


    Love, Ross

  11. Dear Jenny,
    Yes peace has arrived and I know it was expected but death is no longer a casualty. The people left behind become those. Commiserations always seem inadequate but be sure you have all of mine. While I will think of Enid the focus of my thoughts will be you.


    Dear Jenny, you must take huge credit for the attention and care you have given to your mother over the years and I hope you will work to feeling proud of yourself while you fill the gaps Enid has left in your life. I am certainly proud of you for your almost single handed attention and I know the trials you went through for the last years.


    As the world turns and the sun rises without any thought for anything we are all left to fall back on our survival instincts just to keep the lights on and some rice on the table.


    In my thoughts,
    Love Charlie

  14. Dearest Jen, Last week, when Enid was so low, I emailed you, praising you for the gallant effort you have made thru the years, to make Enid's life as comfortable, and pleasant as possible. The lovely dinners you've regularly taken her, the outings to your home and those we took to Ravenswood , several years ago. It is amazing that she lived as long as she did, and still took herself over to the little
    park when she was up to it. You were certainly responsible for the
    pleasures she enjoyed in her later years. Going back to when the boys were young, I remember you driving them up from Capel to spend
    weekends with her. The expression comes to mind--Well done, good and
    faithful servant. Now her troubles are over and she has gone to be with her Heavenly Father and those she loves who have gone before her.
    Now you take care of yourself. Lots of love Joan

  17. Dearest Jenny,



    I was so sorry to learn of your Mom’s passing. I can imagine how rough it must be for you now, and please know that I am here for you and praying for you throughout this difficult time.



    You were such an amazing and wonderful daughter, even through the many times when it was a struggle to be that way. You were always there for her Jenny, and I greatly admire that. You are truly an amazing and loving woman, and I love you dearly,
