Our sincere condolences to Andrea and lindsey there Dad and brothers on the loss of there beautiful Mam Bernie all our love Alan and Erica ❤️
My heart is shattered hearing the news about Bernie. This loss is unbearable and so deeply cruel. There are no words strong enough for the pain her passing has left behind. She was a beautiful, gentle soul, and the emptiness her absence leaves is overwhelming.
Our hearts are breaking for the entire Byrne family, especially Andrea, Doug, Carla and Kai. I pray that God holds you tightly in this darkness, because the weight of this grief is unimaginable. Please know you are not alone — you are surrounded by love, tears, and prayers from afar.
Sending all our love, sorrow, and the tightest embrace from Sydney, Australia.
Forever in our hearts.
Rebecca, Melissa and Giorgio 🤍💔
