MY STORY
I was born I'm Dirranbandi QLD from a proud Aboriginal family.
​
Father Edgar Draper born in Mungindi NSW from Kamilaroi Mother Muriel Hall Draper born in Angledool NSW Proud Yuwaalaraay women.
I have 2 brothers Edgar & Henry, 6 sisters Florence, Doreen, Lenease, Susan, Dianne & Colleen.
My partner Dionne Bishop we have 2 beautiful Gunandos ' children' Declan and Holly, I have 5 gunandos from my first relationship Karla, kyanne, Crystal, Bianca and Cody, and 6 beautiful grandchildren ty, wayde, Ellie, Abbie , lataria and beautiful Pippa.
Lost our culture because in the day mob couldn't speak or practice our ways, mum and dad said couldn't leave mission without permission or a work permit.
