It is with great sadness and disbelief that we share the news that my beautiful wife, Tabitha Dobson, passed away at 8:45 am on Monday, 27th July 2026, surrounded by her loving family: her wonderful parents, Joy and Geoff Dobson; her son and daughter-in-law, Calvin Coles and Claudia Davenport; our daughter, Isabella Blake; and her dear friend, Caroline Ball.
After being in remission for three years, Tabitha's lymphoma returned. This time, it did not give her the opportunity to fight back. Symptoms began only 14 days before her passing, and every possible effort was made by an extraordinary team of Doctors and Nurses.
We are all in shock and struggling to comprehend that someone so wonderful, kind, and deeply loved is no longer with us. Life will never be the same. The sun rises a little dimmer, and the nights seem a little darker without her.
Tabitha will always be loved, forever remembered, and never forgotten.
The family warmly invites all who knew and loved her to join us in celebrating her life at Millingtons Funeral Home, Mornington, on Wednesday, 5 August, at [3:30pm].
We love you with all our hearts, Tabitha. Always and forever. xx
