Hi, our names are Mel & Jase - owners of F45 Matraville.

We are fundraising for Erin and her family after the loss of their beautiful daughter, Luella.

Erin is a member of our gym, but more than that, she is family. She is one of the most dedicated and committed people you will ever meet. She always showed up, even on the hard days, and now we understand why. Everything she did was for Luella.

Luella lived with a rare and complex neurological condition, and Erin devoted her life to caring for her with incredible love, strength, and devotion. Luella was deeply loved, and her life, though far too short, was filled with care and connection.

On Tuesday, Luella. Erin and Dave were by her side, just as they had been every step of her journey.

This fundraiser exists so Erin and Dave do not have to think about funeral costs or logistics during this unimaginable time. They deserve the space to grieve their daughter without added stress or pressure.

Alongside this fundraiser, our community will be coming together for a 24-hour row on Saturday 7 February. This is not about fitness or performance. It is simply a way for us to show up, stand together, and honour Luella while surrounding Erin and Dave with love and support.

Our goal is to cover the funeral and immediate associated costs. If more is raised than what is needed, the remaining funds will be donated to a cause chosen by Erin, in honour of Luella.

Rest in peace, beautiful Luella.

You are so deeply loved, and you will never be forgotten.
