Mensje Francina Woonings

I regret the time I have missed with her. I am not nor have I been the best son. She always welcomed me and loved me. My heart dropped when I heard the news. To my brothers and sisters, I feel your pain, but know that her life was one of honour and love for us all. Her soul is now the God, I look forward to seeing her in almighty heaven. My family thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Dearest Oma, the one who instilled in me a passion and desire to pursue a love of music which continues to this day, who showed me thanklessly how to accompany a congregation well and whose apple cake will continue to salivate my pallet every day. Thank you for being a grandmother who was always wanting to know what I was on about, what I was reading, how law school was going, and who never ceased to always shed a tear of joy whenever I dropped by in the later years. Whilst I know you are now enjoying glory and have seen our Heavenly Father face to face, I am sad at the thought of not seeing your face on this earth again. Much treasured memories of a much loved grandmother. Dearest Opa, my thoughts have been with you today even though circumstances have prevented me from being home. God is good, and his love and faithfulness endures forever.

My condolences go out to the entire Woonings family and the Vandersteen Clan on the passing of Aunty Mennie with regards from myself Nicole Stone sister Jodie brother Brent and most importantly my Father Mennie's youngest brother Arend Stone and his wife Pat. May you all hold her memory in your heart and share your story's with the next generations in years to come so she will live on in your heart and mind. May these memories bring you comfort and healing.

We have been praying and will continue to pray that our Lords' love sustains you through these times of sadness. We will always cherish the memories we have of the times of fellowship we were able to share with you.

Much love and condolences to Len and the family. We will always remember Mennie for her music, meatballs and wonderful company at Scots. James and Fedora

Lieve Oma, de afstand tussen onze levens was altijd groot, maar toch was u mijn oma want regelmatig hebben wij elkaar kunnen ontmoeten en kunnen zien, als u in Nederland was of wij in Australie. U speelde orgel tijdens mijn belijdenisdienst, want daar waren u en opa voor naar Nederland gekomen. 86 een ontzettend mooie leeftijd, en toch zullen we u missen. Maar wij weten dat u nu op een betere plek bent. En daar zullen wij elkaar ooit weer zien.

Loving thoughts and memories remain with us especially of Mennie playing hymn number 32 (Psalm 46) with great aplomb and gusto on Scots organ ! We always had great fun and many laughs together. God bless you Len.

"Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise." Psalm 100. We are thankful to God that we could meet Mennie on this earth, and appreciate her hospitality, kindness, cheerfulness and craft skills some years ago. Our thoughts are with Len and family as you farewell her for a little while. May the Lord be your comfort and strength.

Sincere condolences to Len and family at the sudden passing of dear Mennie With many happy memories of times shared together with Len and Mennie at the Scots Church, Fremantle. 'We grieve but not without hope.' Stuart and Sharon Bonnington
