Tributes

Dear Betty, Phillip, Glenn and Craig, , Uncle Bill here. Thanks to Robin, informing me today , I was able to watch Dougs farewell and watched for an hour, recognisising some of yourselves and pulling a rabbit out of the for some. . Those years when were a Family have been well remembered by me , in any different ways. We were both young parents finding our way through that minefield and Doug impressed as a hard and dedicated father, devoted to you Betty, but also enjoyed his sports, and garden, after his dedication to his employer. one thing i do remember was his humour, not muchrise or fall, but a flat dry reply. Betty, to you and Doug, my continued thanks for your help when needed, To you all,, my Sincerest condolences at the passing of Doug, may he rest in peace knowing he all he could to help others, To this day , he was my Brother in law
