“We are emailing you with the sad news that our mother, Kim Sykes, passed away peacefully on the morning of the 18th. We were lucky enough to both be with her at the time, and incredibly grateful to those at the Epworth who made her final days as comfortable as possible.
“We feel very fortunate not only to have had such a witty, loving, unique and impressive mother, but also that she gathered so many like minds around her who have supported all of us so much during this period.
“We know that Mum was loved by many who sit across state and national borders, and as such, we will wait to celebrate her life and accomplishments with as many of her friends and family as possible. Given our various states of lockdown this celebration of Mum’s life is likely to happen early next year.“
We have greatly appreciated all well-wishes and thoughts during this time.”
