To all the family thinking of you at this sad time only was talking to Brian a month ago and will cherish that chat a beautiful kind man.
Hard to believe we sat next to you a week ago for our bowls breakup.
To a wonderful man who made me welcome at bowls. Always ready for a talk about Jack C.
To Brett, Sally, Lisa, Jodie and your families, I send my love and condolences at this time to you all. I was so fortunate to work with Brian (and Sally) at the tech school. Brian was a beautiful and genuine man, and after he retired, whenever we bumped into each other, we always shared in hearty conversation re our families and life in general, and I always walked away from those chats with a smile on my face. Sorry I can’t make it tomorrow as we now live near the Gippsland lakes, I will watch the service online.
Our sincere condolences to our Australian Family.
