Peter and Amanda and their sister Jess They have issued a statement in which they talk about what they feel after Melissa's death:Words cannot convey our pain, sadness, and the tragic circumstances of Melissa's passing.
Myself, Amanda, Jess and my families are completely devastated and still struggling to process what happened.
Not only have we lost a daughter and a sister, her children have lost their mother, a free spirit, a person with a big heart, patience and enthusiasm for life.
She was the pillar of her life and ours and we must honor her memory so that they can grow up knowing who she was, what she stood for and what she gave to everyone whose lives she touched.
The outpouring of sadness and support has overwhelmed us. The funeral will be held in Perth, his hometown, and there will be a memorial service in Adelaide after the Tour Down Under.
We now have to face our pain privately and will not comment further. We ask the media to respect our privacy and that of Melissa's children.
Peter, Amanda and Jess.
