Vale - Jill Poholke (McMasters)

Postby Kate Eltringham » Thu 14 Mar 2013 4:07 pm

I'm so sad to let everybody know that our esteemed Life Member, Past President and long time member Jill Poholke (McMasters) passed away early this morning.

I'm sure all members that knew Jill would wish to pass on our sincere sympathy to her husband Wayne, her sister Ann and brother Tim, her sons Mick and Scott and all their family members.

Thank you Sylvia, for the words

What terrible news, Jill and her Kadnook Kennels were synonimous with achieving what the Labrador breed was intended to be, great dual purpose dogs . She will be a great loss.
Deepest sympathy to Wayne and the rest of the family.

Regards
Allan & Catherine

Jill’s family and I wish to express our heartfelt thanks to the Retrieving fraternity for the condolences received on the passing of Jill; be it by phone, text, email, card or in person. It is extremely gratifying to know that Jill was highly respected by so many Australia wide and Internationally for her passion for breeding ‘functional dual purpose’ Labradors that were so successful in a various disciplines. Rest assured Jill’s legacy will live on through future anticipated litters that Jill and I had planned.

Regards
Wayne.
