A love heart made out of sheep: Australian farmer pays tribute to his aunt - Irish Times
"Unfortunately, she didn’t make it,” Mr Jackson said. “At those times of grief, you feel really helpless, you don’t know what to do, what to say.
"Especially in these Covid times, no one can prepare for that border closure grief, not being able to say cheerio or be there when she passes. It’s pretty difficult."
Mr Jackson said the idea for the heart came to him while he was out feeding his sheep "supplementary tucker" as they are "quite pregnant and need a bit of extra TLC".
Actually making the heart took "three or four" attempts, Mr Jackson said, with his initial efforts turning out less than desirable.
"The first time I tried it looked like the sh*t emoji, I tell you, and whilst my Aunty Deb had a good sense of humour, that wasn’t exactly what I was going for," he said.
