Vale Irene Wallin

 

 

Irene Wallin, a long time campaigner for asylum seekers passed away on 11/11/2020.  She was instrumental in the establishment of the SIVX National Memorial and the formation of the Bellingen Nambucca Rural Australians for Refugees Group. Her contribution will always be remembered. Vale Irene.


"Dear, dear Irene. In your quiet way you exemplified what can be achieved when a passionate, caring person devotes themselves to fighting for what they believe in. Whether it was the beneficial fun of participating in aquarobics under Irene's expert instruction, sharing visits to the garden events through Seedsavers, or the many social justice and environmental campaigns where we stood literally shoulder to shoulder, you have been one of the special people in my life over the last twelve years. Yes today is a sad day, but so many people can reflect with gratitude and pride to have counted you as a friend. I feel your loss keenly, Irene. Rest well." Carol Vernon
