To dear Min Meridith and Jo,. We have such happy memories of our Neddy seagoon. After a nearly 40 yr friendship I wouldn't know where to start. Your knowledge of car parts etc was incredible. Every Sunday you would call in for coffee and a good chin wag. Both you and great white have helped each other out doing things over the years. We will miss you but out memories are much greater than being sad. Ned you deserve your rest now so rest easy mate.

To all the family that is saying goodbye to John at this time, I wish to share a moment. Accepting death is never easy, but in my 70 years I’ve decided that acceptance is the key whether we understand it or not. Remember the good times we all had together. Life is such a precious gift. John’s legacy is a loving family which is one of the best gifts to leave behind. John you have a special family who have always been there for you: Your darling Min who has shown me how to be steadfast and loving despite life’s challenges. Jo who loved you with devotion and took responsibility to give you tender care in your later years. and Jody, who has provided Jo withconstant support over recent times. Meredith and Kevin who loved and supported you, and always with great kindness and care. Thanks for being part of our family You will not be forgotten. Love Pauline and Roger and family. AUSTRALIA.
