Last week my son Matt and 2-year old grandson Luca were shocked and devastated by the tragic passing of their partner and mum Natalie.

Natalie was a beautiful, kind a loving partner to Matt, mother to Luca, sister to Bec and David and daughter to Chris. She was planning the rest of her life with Matt and Luca, with a date set for their wedding later this year, only for it to all be tragically taken away.

Natalie was a huge support to Matt and Luca. Over the last three years, she’d helped Matt secure an apprenticeship while working herself and raising their happy, playful and energetic son Luca.

We would appreciate any financial support that you can provide to assist Matt, Luca and their families as they deal with the many adjustments that they unfortunately must make. Every bit of help, big or small, will make a huge difference to them in covering funeral expenses and providing ongoing support for Matt and Luca.
