Yesterday we were presented with our laundry bags.

Mine was from you. It is a pure piece of art and I can see the many many hours of care in making it. I absolutely love it – thank you and the fact that you have included my Assistance Dog, Poppy just makes it even more meaningful to me. Thank you so very very much, it is greatly appreciated and will be well treasured.

I hope you like the pics of Poppy with it.

Thank you

Regards

To Bobbie S and theMystery BOMers,

I would like to especially Thank You and your fantastic team of talented Quilters for making my Quilt.

 

It was a complete surprise to me, even though I don’t feel worthy of such an honour. I will treasure my quilt.

 

Thank you to your team you mentioned in the letter – as you are the co-ordinator of the Mystery BOMers, Alison and Joan, as well as The Garage Girls. This talent has not gone unrecognised by me.

 

My sincere thanks does not seem adequate – but I say Thank You to everyone one of your talented team.

 

Kind regards

 

 

Hi Ruth S,

 

Thank you so much for my laundry bag I really appreciate it.  I think the work you and other volunteers do at Aussie Heroes is an amazing contribution and really makes us feel supported. In fact it actually brought a tear to my eye to receive it. 

 

You just can’t put into words how much it means. I’ve included a photo of the laundry bag and a photo of the whole team with our bags. I’m in the back row furtherest on the left. 

 

Thanks again and I hope you are well.

… 

Good Afternoon Melissa L! 

Let me start by saying how much I love the Laundry Bag that you created for me! I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect since I gave such a strange request, but you’ve really nailed it. Twilight is definitely a guilty pleasure of mine – I think it reminds me of simpler times and I know it line by line at this point. 

 

It’s great to hear that you were able to have a tour of HMAS Sydney, I love it when people are able to have a look at the way that we live on board as it’s such a unique experience. 

 

I’m one of eight children… I know, crazy right. My parents were both in the Army when I was younger, so we did a tonne of moving around from house to house and school to school. A bit tough at the time but now I find that I’m easily adaptable into different circumstances, so I suppose it was helpful in the long run. Before Defence, I went to uni and did two out of four years of a degree before deciding that it ultimately wasn’t for me. I joined the Navy three years ago and HMAS Sydney is my first sea posting, so this is my first experience with Aussie Heroes.

 

 I am so glad that it was you who made my bag since I was also Team Jacob, like calls to like. 

 

Thank you again and good luck with everything! 

 

Hi Melissa L,

 

Firstly I wanted to say you absolutely made my day with the laundry bag!!

 

Noodles is my nickname, as in “Hokkien Noodles” so I was thrilled to see the material you used.

 

My family and I have been in the N.T. for the last 10 years. My wife works and my 5 year old son is in his first year of school and loves BMX racing.

 

Thank you again for the work you do for Aussie Hero. I certainly do appreciate your fantastic laundry bag! (My wife and colleagues defiantly found it funny)

 

I hope this email finds you well.

 

Kind regards,  

 

Good morning Bridget R,

 

Thank you so much for making me my own Laundry bag with chickens and a Rottweiler on it.

 

I showed the bag to my own Rottweiler (Malcolm) and he loved it.

 

Thanks again!
