Elisabeth Ayres

Obituary

In loving memory of Elisabeth Maria Ayres (née de Blank).

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our wife and mum, Lis.

Wife to Harry.
Mum to Daniel, Michael, Sam, Katherine and Tom.
Mother-in-law to Danielle, Bronte and Greg.
Oma to Justin, Braydon, Tyler and Bella-Rose; Deken, Lilie, Annie and Bella; Ben and Luke.
Great Oma to Leilani.
Sister and sister-in-law to Jack and Dawn, Joanne and Marcus, Andy and Chris.

Words can't express our pain and sorrow at her sudden passing, and we thank everyone for their love and support throughout this time.

Mum loved her family deeply and would go above and beyond to help in any way. A wicked sense of humour, she would give it back as good as we gave it.

Many around town knew she loved a good chat, and was always quick to tell people about her kids' and grandkids' accomplishments, big or small.

She will live on through our beautiful memories.

We would love for you to share your memories and photos of mum with us.

Please join us for relaxed gathering to chat and remember Lis at the York Recreation and Convention Centre, from 1-3pm on Saturday 19 September 2026.
