Her famous family’s many ups and downs captured Australia’s attention and made frontpage news for nearly half a century. Now, six months after Bob Hawke’s death, his daughter Sue Pieters-Hawke is still processing her loss.
“The grieving hasn’t gone away. It never goes away completely,” she tells New Idea. “People who’ve experienced grief know that you can be perfectly OK and then something can hijack you.”
She says she still feels her father’s presence strongly, although not, she’s quick to add, in any metaphysical or paranormal way.
“I have felt Dad’s presence at times in an eerie sense since his death,” says Sue. “I can look at something or a picture of him, or recall something and it’s as if he is hovering there.”
It’s not surprising given Sue has spent months immersing herself in and gathering recollections about her father for Remembering Bob. The book is described as a collection of memories and stories about the iconic former prime minister, from old friends, colleagues, political foes and supporters as well as everyday Australians who crossed paths with him.
