Unfortunetly 2020 has other ideas for us this year. In September we lost my father George to cancer and now we are losing my mother to heart faliure 2 months later 😢

Christine was the one always on the phone and sorting out all the office side of things, she was the first point of contact for 40 years.

She endured so much from the boys at the back, sometimes she was in the line of fire with office pranks and sometimes had to be the Mother of the business to get them all back to work.

An amazing woman will soon leave this earth, but she will be with her husband, daughter and many other family members soon 💔

We will miss her greatly, we will miss them both.

So this year has been a terrible year for our Family, both my parents have been in and out of hospital and sometimes are in at the same time.

George passed away 3 weeks ago and ever since then our lives have been nothing but a mess and yesterday was the low blow when the landlord of Dads shop decided he would change the locks and keep all our stuff and hold my Mum at ransom who is in hospital fighting for her life to pay $7000 to release everything so she can sell it to make some money as Dad was the one bringing in the money. We still have yet to pay for the funeral too which will be on Monday. My mum is in pieces, her whole life is a mess and she is losing everything and I feel so broken for her. I am doing everything I can to help her.

My aunt set up a GoFundMe page and all funds will be going to help my mum. I would appreciate any donations, but no pressure x Please read the full messy story in the profile, because what I have said here is only a taste of what we have been through :(

It is with deepest sadness to say this, my father George the upholsterer is losing his battle with cancer. He is now in hospice being cared for and made comfortable. Unfortunetly his wife Christine is also in hospital so it has been extremley hard for the family. We have made the decision to close the business down, we just cant keep it going without George doing his magic and my mother is too unwell to keep the business going.

At the moment, we will be silent on the socials and the phones so please be patient during this time.

Dad loved his customers and I know he loved what he did, it was a passion of his. Please send us photos of your lounges, we would love to see the magic he has done for you and would love to hear your memories of my father.

He was a selfless man who did so much and gave much more. He is so loved and will be missed so much, he is an amazing man who I am proud to have as my father.

We will let you know when dad finally clocks out for the final time with his business.

Thank you for supporting my parents and trusting in my dads service.

It has been 2 weeks since my father the upholsterer went into hospital and he is still there hopefully discharged this week. On Thursday last week he had brain surgery and is recovering well and will be starting chemo within a few weeks. He still has a long way to go before getting back into the swings of things at work if he does decide to come back so we ask for your patience during this time while he recovers and goes through this treatment.

This is a family run small business that started in the backyard in Magill over around 40 years ago, here is a photo of my father with his eldest daughter who passed 5 years ago getting the backyard and shed ready to start this new venture.

Today we said goodbye to Toby the upholstery dog. Toby spent everyday in the shop saying hello to customers and was often seen sitting at the front door watching the world outside. Toby unfortunately had a tumor on his liver and was living the rest of his life by his families side. He passed today sitting under the desk in the office on his favourite cushion.

He will be furrever missed & loved by his family and his friends.

The shop will be closed this weekend while we grieve with the family.

Have fun at rainbow bridge bubba and say hello to our other lost furrbabies. RIP x
