I’ve never felt as seen, as special, as appreciated, as loved, before my Danabanana chose me. We weren’t bored, or tired of each other, we didn’t argue,, still held hands, we were still in love, still trying our best to be the best, still making each other laugh. Dana was so many things to so many people, to precious to hold alone. She was a great friend, an aunt a daughter, a mum. An amazing twin sister. To me she was wifey. My love. To the entire Buchanan clan she was our sky full of stars. She shone with all that was good in the world. Love you forever Bubby xxx 💔😢

I'm so sorry for your loss. I worked with Dana many years ago at Unilever. She was the first person in the office from outside my function to reach out to me when I joined and she made a lasting impression. She was always the most resilient, most positive and most supportive person in the room. I hope this donation can go a little way to honouring her memory.

So many laughs over the years. I’m pretty sure it all started way back when …. with me being the dud group member in a marketing group assignment followed by trips to Hong Kong ‘hello welcome’, fashionable stinger suits on the great barrier reef. May your journey continue in peace.
