Dear Jan and family, We thought this a lovely tribute to your dear dad. Bought back many memories of stories we have heard from you over the years. We laughed and cried at the contributions from you all. I will never forget staying at your parents place in 1979 and being absolutely terrified of the guard magpie that lived there. I laugh about it now that I know a lot more about magpies. A home of generosity and love.

Dear Max and family,
Lorraine and I met John from the many visits to Doncaster Street, especially at BBQs Max hosted there. This is also where we met Betty and the greater friends and Coxhead family. John would perch with his beer holding his wry smile as he took in his surrounding at his home. He stamped his strong persona and his authority on us all. He didn’t take fools well, he didn’t boast and tempered his timely considered responses. He was a genuine family man, a dedicated man from a now long gone era.
We all loved him ….
Rod and Lorraine
THANKYOU Rod & Lorraine for helping us pray and celebrate the life of a good man. And I trust you’ll watch over that other bearded good man (in Castlemaine) for me Rod xx
