Milly Kuranage — 23 March 2026

Jean was truly a special person who meant so much to all of us here at Clifton Hill.Jean was, in every sense, like a queen among us. There was a presence about her a quiet grace, a dignity, and a warmth that made her stand out in the most beautiful way. When Jean walked into a room, she didnt just enter it she lit it up. Her smile, her gentle nature, and her calm spirit brought comfort and joy to those around her.She had a true love for flowers and in many ways, she was just like them. Elegant, vibrant, and full of life. She brought colour and beauty into our days, often in the simplest but most meaningful ways.Jean was always kind. Always gentle. She treated everyone with warmth and respect, and in return, she was deeply loved by all of us staff, residents, and families alike.Her presence at Clifton Hill was something truly special. And while we are so grateful to have shared this time with her, it is impossible to ignore the space she leaves behind. It will not be the same without her.Jean will always remain a part of this community in our memories, in our stories, and in the kindness she showed us that continues to inspire how we care for one another.Rest peacefully, Jean. You will be deeply missed, and never forgotten.
