After watching the service online, if you can leave a guest message to let the family know you have joined into the service, that would be greatly appreciated.
Dear Jan, Belinda and Andrew, Many thanks for the opportunity to view Ian’s service. We have been thinking about you all. What an amazing age and so many memories. The music was so appropriate too. Love to you all. Jane and Chris
Whoops. Missed the service, but got to view it today. Thanks. I remember Warragul, Gillian and I visited soon after we were married, late 70’s? I just saw Dad in the corner of a wedding photo, and I was touched that you included a photo with Mum and Dad in it. And loved the joke about the accountant, given that your Dad was an accountant.
Don’t worry, you won’t forget him. And in time each memory will bring a smile.
Dear Jan and Belinda
Thinking of you both during this time. The memories you have of your Parpy Belinda will forever be etched in your heart. Take care
Hi Jan, Stan, Belinda and Andrew – what a wonderful service to celebrate the life of your Dad (Uncle Ian) You did a wonderful job of compiling 98 years! He will be sadly missed. Mum too will miss him.
The Marr Family
Ian’s service was a wonderful tribute, with very moving eulogies and photos. Love of life and family shone through it all. Thank you all for your sharing of memories and stories.
Dear Jan, Belinda, Andrew, stan and your wider family
A great reflection on Ian’s life of achievement, integrity and joyous personality and you affection and appreciation of him. You all captured the essence of who he was and of the mutual love for each other.
Belinda, your role in this memorable service was wonderful, a great balance between acceptance of the pain of parting and the celebration of a life well lived. We will miss him.
Dear Jan, Stan, Belinda and Andrew,
Ian was a true gentleman. I enjoyed his company. The service was lovely. May Ian Rest In Peace.

Dear Jan, Belinda and Andrew.
What a wonderful farewell for Ian. We were with you there this afternoon, and you all did Ian proud – especially Belinda conducting the service which must have been a difficult time for her.
Our Condolences and love.
Lachlan and Enid Ronalds.
Wonderful service, very moving, a tribute to Uncle Ian’s life.
He lived his life with honesty, integrity, courage and optimism – and a great sense of (sometimes wicked) humour and fun.
He was devoted to his family and friends, was interested in everyone and made them feel welcome and included, and enjoyed being alive..
His smile lit up the room.
We will miss him!
A beautiful and very fitting service conducted by Belinda and family members.
Ian was a delightful gentleman and will be fondly remembered at Vermont South Bowls Club.
We always enjoyed his company and admired his friendly but very competitive spirit. We had the occasion to say to him on many occasions he was an inspiration, a remark that always brought a big smile to his face.
Rest in Peace Ian.
Geoff and Lyn Bryant
An outstanding tribute to Ian. He would have been very proud of his family today. Jan, Stan and Belinda are to be commended for their wonderful eulogies which provided a very loving and interesting review of Ian’s life which he lived to the full and on his own terms. Belinda did an excellent job of conducting the service under difficult circumstances. We were very glad to part of the virtual congregation.
Dear Stan and family, What a lovely family recall of Ian’s interesting and varied life. We will miss his stories and sense of humour with his strong presence. Our thoughts are with you all. We are sending loving virtual hugs and we shall have a glass of wine in Ian’s memory.
Dear Jan and Family Our thoughts and prayers are with u at the sudden loss of your beloved father Ian. Know that he was loved by many .
Stay Safe and Well. Love Judy and Neil Mance
A lovely service Belinda and remembrance of Uncle Ian, and it was special to see the photos covering his whole life. He made an impact on our lives too and we’ll always remember his interest in the wider family, and his keen interest in world events. You all did wonderfully in looking after him in the later years. Love and prayers to you all. Wish we could give you all a hug.
Belinda, you conducted a truly beautiful service, the perfect tribute to Uncle Ian. Thank you for sharing him with us. Our love and hugs Jan, Belinda & Andrew, Stan & Jayne. Jane & Steve
Jan and Belinda – what a lovely service. Although I think I met Ian only once, and that briefly, your tribute to him made me appreciate what a kindly and humorous soul he was. Live well with your memories of him.
