Hundreds gather for funeral |
More than 400 people gathered last month to farewell and celebrate the life of Booker Bay resident Ms Joan White at St Andrews Church, Umina.
Women from Ettalong Memorial Bowling Club provided a guard of honour and representatives from political and community organisations were present.
Coast Bowls News publicist Mr Bob Penson said Ms White was a valuable member of the Peninsula community.
"Joan's community contributions over the years extended to organisational aspects of netball, swimming, craft, tennis, indoor and lawn bowls clubs and church associations," Mr Penson said.
"When she passed suddenly, it took her family and friends by surprise, leaving her family and particularly husband of 52 years, John, with a great store of memories."
