Maybe one day on the road we'll find you camped by the sea, as we warm the backs of our jeans by the fire, raise a glass and watch the surf out to the sunset.

My sincere condolences to Brian and family on the loss of your beautiful Tess. Tess will be missed by so many people as she was a friend to all and a caring, compassionate and very welcoming person. A loving and gracious lady now at rest.
Sending all my love to Tess’s family. Tess was my music teacher in primary school and paved the way for me continuing to play music all through my life. Thank you for the music Mrs Britt <3
Sincere condolences to Brian and family. Tess was certainly one of a kind. Always fondly remembered for her hospitality, and generosity and loving ways. I hope you are with dear Marg now resting peacefully.
Tess was my music teacher all through primary school. After all these years, I can still remember her teaching me how to play the xylophone. She touched the hearts of many students and I am proud to be one of them. Sending all my love to her family
Tess your warmth and outgoing, larger than life personality will be greatly missed in this world. What a wonderful life you created for yourself and your family. Working alongside you was a delight. I loved joining in with you and my class share the fun.
Rest in peace dearest friend and condolences to Brian and your family. With enduring love. “TJ” Tarquam James McKenna and Nicholas Bell
Thank you aunty for teaching me how to sing when I was little you where so much fun , I miss the old times you would come to Brisbane in your caravan and would stay and eat the infamous mussels my dad would make for all of us , we love you endlessly
We first met in 1985 when Marg and I became Tess and Brian's neighbours and friends in Circular Rd, East Ridgley. Tess and Brian were our farming neighbours, who quickly became our farming friends. So many happy memories and glasses of wine over those 40 years Tess. RIP
A beautiful lady, full of kindness, love and laughter. Her passion for for music is well remembered as she was undaunted by our lack of enthusiasm and talent as children at Ridgley Primary.
So sorry for your loss Brian, and family. Tess was such an amazing lady. So sorry we can't make it today, we'll catch up with you soon. Fond love and prayers.
Tess, mum, you will be deeply missed.
