  1. Dearest sweet girl Natasha,
    It is still inconceivable that you are no longer with us . I’ll always remember you as that darling little girl who would throw herself into my arms every time you saw me . From an adorable baby and toddler, to a gorgeous young girl and teenager – our family trip to Queensland , watching you grow into a lovely young woman .
    The time we went to see WICKED together.. your sweet cheeky little giggle .. your dream to just have a beautiful big old family and live in the country .. your immense love of your family, Daddy Nan and pop, not to mention being fiercely protective of your little brother …so many other lovely memories of you I cannot include here .
    Rest well darling girl – you are truly well loved even if you aren’t here on earth anymore. You are in that beautiful sunny place in heaven, with your sweet nan and pop, making cakes and riding horses .
    My heartfelt condolences to my godson Liam who worshiped you, and your daddy Glenn . All my love María Stamatakos, and Stamatakos family xxxxx

  2. A genuine sweetheart, the world is a lesser place with your loss.
    You brought joy to so many by just being “little old you”.
    Thank you for showing us how kindness is done.
    You will be very fondly remembered .
    Rest In Peace Darling Tash.
