Was lovely and i had some nice giggles through that with the Apollo Bay stories that took me on a trip down memory lane.
I miss you all so so much and it’s at times like this that exaggerate this feeling for me xxx
To Dear David our sincerest and deepest sympathies at the loss of your dear father Dennis
Who you cared for daily during his illness for the last few years until his death.
Thank you also for the beautiful music I am sure Denis would have loved it.
Your dear son Apollo was a sight to behold
A wonderful service for a fine gentleman, so pleased we could attend.
Angelika your singing was beautiful and a great tribute
Apollo you were a very brave young man
Our deepest sympathy to Sadie and all the family
Sending all our love and prayers. What a wonderful and full life and we enjoyed hearing his history and story. All our love to the extended family. Apollo did a great job too xx all our love

So pleased we were able to attend the funeral of Dennis such a fine gentleman
It was a wonderful service especially enjoyed Angelika’s singing.
Well done Apollo you are a very courageous young man
So pleased that we could all still be part of celebrating Uncle Dennis’ life at this difficult time. It’s good to know that the Rathbone legacy of warm kidneys through tucked in singlets is a tradition that is being passed on! Dad constantly reminded us of the same thing – almost word for word…sending love to Aunty Sadie and everyone
Thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to share in the celebration of this wonderful, faith filled, family man.
Beautiful to hear from Doug and Graeme – we never knew Mum worked there! “Granite hands”, such a beautiful and apt description Justin. Thank you for the beautiful singing too David and Angelica.
Clearly singlets were a family issue. We often quote Dad when someone is cold :”Have you got a singlet on Pal?” and “Tuck your singlet in Pal” 🙂
Beautiful service, would have loved to have shared it with you. So many fond memories of a great man Uncle Dennis. Thank you to Doug and Ann and all concerned for making this available to us.
A lovely service for a great gentleman. My family’s thoughts are with you all. I am so sorry for your loss but a a great tribute to a full well lived life. A truly brave young boy who attended this morning. Take care of yourselves please. Bernard
Dear Doug and family. A lovely service for a great gentleman. My family’s thoughts are with you. That was a truly brave young boy who attended today. I am so sorry for you all but it was a great tribute to a full life.

what a fitting service for an incredible gentleman – who gave so much love to his family and all who
came in contact with him
Rest in peace Gramps and say Hi to Matt for me
Such a touching tribute to celebrate the life of Dennis and his devotion to Sadie and generations of family. Wishing you all happy and loving memories.
Lovely service, felt like we were there. So many wonderful memories of a kind and sincere uncle, we were lucky to have him for so long. Big hugs to all family especially Aunty Sadie xxxxxPS I too am economical with the tea bags, 5 cups from one bag- Uncle Dennis & I often shared a joke about that- we were a cheap shout!
Lovely service and tribute to Uncle Dennis. Lots of cherished memories of a wonderful man who we will all miss. Thinking of you Aunty Sadie and family at this sad time. Much love Elodie xo
A beautiful, simple and touching service, Gramps would have approved! A wonderful father-in-law for so many years, I will always miss his wise counsel, shoulder to cry on, and the love and care he had for every member of his family. Love to Nanna and Gramps always, Sue
So many wonderful memories of Gramps, especially at the farm with his beloved animals & Polaris!! May his Spirit soar across the Otways that he loved so much for all eternity…RIP Gramps & condolences to all the family x
