  23. Zia Auntie Maria, Jasmine, Clinton , Josephine, Vincent and families.
    We are still in disbelief and heartbroken -our deepest sympathies and condolences. Zio was and always will be remembered as a gentle good welcoming family man, so many great memories of get togethers he had at Rossmore with all the relos / friends together where zio was in his element and happiest with the goat on the spit / bbqs and food feasts, the jokes, dry sense of humour, discussions on what was ‘seriously’ happening in the world and our satirical take on that and the way we joked around – Great times , great memories and family get togethers – that will be missed – will never forget that. His love of ALL family was clear. His passing has left a giant hole in all our hearts. Until we see him again he will be sorely missed. Still can’t believe it..

    Love from us all Max, Rose, Jacob,Alex

  24. Deepest condolences to Aunty Maria, Josephine, Jasmin, Clinton, Vincent and families.

  30. Dear Maria , Josephine & Mike, Jasmin & Josh, Clint and Vinnie .
    And to Arlo, Odessa, Magnus, Jude and Ruby ,
    And to Tony’s Beloved Family .

    Tony has been a great friend to many people and the perfect example of a man , always available to assist and stand by anyone in need .. The resounding comment by those who knew him , was of his welcoming personality , his quiet and somewhat laid-back demeanour and of course his love of a chat whilst generously sharing his table .

    You may all be well proud of the respect he earned and the goodwill he fostered throughout his time with us . His passing has left a great void . But be comforted , that he has left an indelible mark on many lives .

    I , especially , will cherish the memories of the times we spent together .
    Bob Grant .
