I'm broken hearted at the news that Liz of Vic has gone to God.

Elisabeth Vogels was a founding member of this website and had been immensely generous in her support to us.

Elisabeth's daughter Jane shared this note with us on behalf of the Vogels family.

I wanted to let you know Elisabeth  passed away peacefully on Thursday evening.

My brother Hans arrived from Adelaide just a few hours before and had a chance to be with her.

It’s been a difficult few 2 months with Ma in hospital for severe dehydration and then rehab.

We were able to share her 94th birthday on 18 March at home before she moved to aged care.

 

The staff at Arcare Malvern could not have been more caring and thoughtful and Ma won many hearts there with her constant thanks and humour.

People have negative ideas about aged care but our experience was a good one. Nothing was too much trouble.

Ma had a lovely room on “The Ritz” level - as you may know she loved the good things in life and we all loved visiting her there.

Rest in Peace Elisabeth, we'll light a candle for you.
