To see our ad in that newspaper among all the other tributes to Heath just brought tears back to my eyes. It's wonderful. Thank you, Meryl, Peachy, Mouk and everybody who contributed. I am so happy to be part of this and to call you my friends! :-*

Peachy has sent me another view showing our notice in context on the page.  It is really moving to see it there among the other notices.



That looks just so beautiful in the full context of the page.  It really was an excellent image selection now that I see it there.  It also makes such a difference in our ad standing out to have an image at all in the midst of all the different text ads.  Looks gorgeous Brokies.

yes, his family did run messages in The West. 

I had seen the ads, I'm glad they were posted in the same paper as ours!  Well done Peachy!

It also makes such a difference in our ad standing out to have an image at all in the midst of all the different text ads.

Hi Amanda, I completely agree.  It really stands out.

Awesome - I feel so proud and touched at the same time....hope it has the same moving impact on the family and others.

Yes, I found the website. I am going to start a new thread on the topic, so it doesn't get mixed up here with the information on the ad and the flowers.

That seems to be more of a fundraiser for Heathledger.net.

The sources I found on the charities Heath supported can be found in this thread:

Did anybody see that our notice is next to the notice by Haydn Ledger and family? I think that's Heath's uncle.

Why do you all think that Ashley (sp?) and Olivia aren't being mentioned as family, only Kate?  Whose children are they?  I mean which parent do they share with Heath?

Yes...thanks Milli for saying this.  I'm so glad I could contribute.  Makes me feel more connected to all of us.
