  1. Such a beautiful soul, gone way too soon. I was one of Declan’s teachers at Wesley Elsternwick and his star shone so brightly. Declan was always so spirited and fun to teach – one in a billion!
    Please accept my heartfelt condolences.
    Much love,
    Anne- Louse

  2. Dear Jane, Alan, Charlotte and Family,

    Our deepest condolences on your family’s loss.

    You all did a great job speaking at the funeral conveying Declan’s amazing life and sharing many fond memories. Although we had not seen him for many years, I now feel that we knew him well.

    Our thoughts are with you,

    Love from Jenny and Geoff Stretton

  3. Dearest Alan, Jane and Charlotte,

    My deepest sympathies for the loss of your beloved son and brother. My deepest sympathies to David for the loss of your beloved nephew. My deepest sympathies to Jake, Deb, and Mae (and of course, Hamlet). My deepest sympathies to Miriam, and thank you for so generously and gracefully leading Declan’s tribute.

    Thank you for sharing this most beautiful and moving tribute to Declan.

    Although I did not know Declan or meet him, I now wish that I had.

    The love you have for each other is deep and extraordinary. May your treasured memories of Declan and your relationships with him endure, comfort and sustain you.

    “How can I make the future of the World a little bit better?”
    By following Declan’s example; Live Life: explore, be curious, be adventurous, bold and inquisitive; see the funny side, but be respectful and caring. And above all: be generous and kind.

    I am so very sorry for your loss.

    Much love,

    Craig

  4. Thank you for the privilege of experiencing this terrific celebration of a remarkable young man’s tragically short life.

    Charles Perkins said: We cannot live in the past, but the past lives in us.

    I wish Declan’s wonderful family, especially Jane, Alan and Charlotte, and Declan’s loyal, inspirational and courageous friends Mae and Jake, comfort and strength at this most difficult time.

  5. I am deeply saddened by the news of the loss of such a wonderful young person. I only knew Declan for a few years as one of his teachers at Wesley Elsternwick. He was such a beautiful soul and brought joy wherever he went.
    Rest in Peace dearest Declan.

  6. Dearest Jane, Alan, Charlotte & Family,

    Thank you for sharing the life of your adorable son Declan.

    Such a beautiful courageous celebration of his amazing life.

    It is with a broken heart, deepest empathy, sympathy and compassion I send you a universe of love, strength, courage, and serenity at this difficult time! So very hard to believe!

    It was a privilege to know and love such a beautiful, intelligent, friendly, humorous and kind young man, who will be so sadly missed but always so lovingly remembered.

    Declan always had the time to stop for a chat, and had the knack of somehow making you feel so very special.

    I can only imagine how devastatingly sad it is for you all, but also how proud you all must be, of the amazing young man Declan had become, and all that he had accomplished. Rest in peace gorgeous Declan.

    With all my love always

    Chris C ♥️♥️♥️

  7. Our heartfelt condolences to all who love Declan. We remember, from when we knew him at Wesley Elsternwick, Declan’s brightest-of-eyes, his keen intelligence, his enthusiasm and his unbounded quest for knowledge. It was clear from your words at yesterday’s service that Declan was deeply appreciated, loved and cherished, and well-supported by those closest to him, and we hope that you’ll take some comfort from that. We wish you courage and strength.

    1. Dear Alan, Jane, Charlotte, Family And Friends
      Thank you for sharing a beautiful and moving tribute to Declan. It was remembering an incredible young man and how he inspired and touched many lives with his enthusiasm and creative talents. He will live on in our hearts and our own lives have been made richer by knowing such an inspirational young man. May he Rest in Peace.
      Andrew and Kay Bright

    2. I was so shocked & deeply saddened to learn of Declan’s passing.
      Kathy & I just watched his funeral service on-line and were so touched, comforted & inspired by each of the loving tributes to such an amazing young man whose life was cut far too short.

      I will always remember my first meeting with him back in 2001 when he was about 5 years old.
      Having just taken over from Norma Nixon, I had settled into her old office when I heard a child shouting loudly & running down the office passage way. He rounded the corner and came to my office doorway looking for Norma’s lolly jar. Looking aghast at the new version of Norma, he momentarily froze whilst I attempted to introduce myself. But then he about-faced and bolted back up the passageway. Subsequently a new lolly jar was reinstated in the accounts office.

      My thoughts & condolences are with you Alan, Jane, Charlotte, Mae, Jake and your wider families. May your loving memories of Declan fill your hearts with ongoing pride and courage.

      Sincerely yours,
      Brian Gridley

  30. His Journey’s Just Begun – Ellen Brenneman

    Don’t think of him as gone away
    his journey’s just begun,
    life holds so many facets
    this earth is only one.

    Just think of him as resting
    from the sorrows and the tears
    in a place of warmth and comfort
    where there are no days and years.

    Think how he must be wishing
    that we could know today
    how nothing but our sadness
    can really pass away.

    And think of him as living
    in the hearts of those he touched…
    for nothing loved is ever lost
    and he was loved so much.

    Thinking of you,
    Barry and Lesley

  50. It is with a profound sadness that I wish to convey my deep condolences at your loss of Declan. It pains me to think that I have never met Declan in person but watching the service brought memories of my childhood when as a very young new arrival in the country I was fully welcomed as a member of the Oppenheim family.
    Gerald and later Rae became my Australian siblings, it seems this spirit of thoughtfulness, kindness and compassion for others has passed on through the generations to your Declan.
    I was very moved by the service and feel your pain.

  51. A beautiful celebration of Declan’s life. Thank you Jane and Alan for allowing us to take part.

Highlights include our road trip around Tasmania, camping in Daylesford for New Year’s Eve 2015, and our holiday in Mansfield in 2017. He was always so much fun to have around.
    My condolences go out to Alan, Jane and Charlie.

  68. To dear Alan, Jane, Charlotte and extended family,
    Thank you for allowing me to be apart of Declan’s celebration of life.
    Truly a loved person by all who knew him.
    I remember meeting Declan for probably the second time in Croatia. After nearly a 40 hour flight and about to board a bus to Split, a flash goes off, he had taken my photo. I begged him not to publish it anywhere. He just replied ever so politely where he would publish it, (cheeky bugger)
    My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
    Love from
    Rosemarie Garsia

    Our love and thoughts are with you,
    Robynne and Alex

  77. Years pass- memories flood back. Watching David was like watching Gerald circa 1973 (without the Dresden accent). Alan you are a combination of Gerald and Rae; viva Ego Pharmaceuticals (it never was “a dirty word”). Declan’s love of great coffee and disdain of everything Murdoch sit so well with my sensibilities. As they say in Hebrew, “I wish you all a long life”. Vale a creative, handsome soul.

  78. My thoughts and prayers are with you today and always. This was a beautiful service for a beautiful soul. May he now rest in peace.

  79. A beautiful reflection of Declan’s life. He was loved by so many and will be sadly missed. Condolences to Jane, Alan & Charlotte. Fly high Declan.

  118. Goodbye musketeer, thank you so very much for all the memories. Your fierce friendship and support, offbeat humour that would always catch me off guard and cause long laughing fits; and the endlessly entertaining debates and conversations we had both during our school years and whenever we would run into each other in the days after (we would always seem to easily pick up from the last time we left off) are all things that will continue to make me smile. Love and hugs.
