The Veness Family History

We followed on in what was intended to be just a holiday, but ended up again building a home not to far distant from both Stuart and Kevin. We later built again in Kingsley, WA, where we lived until Stuart, Margaret, Pearl and myself decided to build duplex homes in Mandurah, some 80 kms south of Perth. In the meantime Kevin had remarried and moved to Queensland. Mandurah is a picturesque spot, and where we live we can see out over the ocean and back over to the estuary. Pearl and I have made many trips across Australia, and to many parts of Western Australia. We particularly love to visit the wildflower areas of the State each year. In 1997 the decision was made to again move back to Perth, as Stuart needed to move away from the heavy salt air. Stuart and Margaret, and ourselves, bought adjoining Villa Homes in Thornlie, where we then saw more of our grandchildren. We have enjoyed life and continued to do so until late in 1998 when Pearl was diagnosed with cancer. She passed away 10 February 1999. Stuart and Margaret then built a larger home in Jane Brook (a suburb of Perth), Western Australia, so I could move in and live with them. (Frank died 21 May 2013 at Swan District Hospital, Middle Swan, Western Australia at the age of 95. He was buried at Pinnaroo Valley Memorial Cemetery, Padbury, Western Australia, on 30 may 2013.)
