It’s so hard to write in words the sadness we feel at losing you Bushy-Steve, you will be forever in our hearts and in our thoughts. So many wonderful memories shared that will never be forgotten.
Thank you for the laughs & the cuddles.
Love you Steve Lxxx
What a beautiful service . . . I am so very grateful that I could watch this virtually/on-line . . . & even though I was unable to do so until a later time, I felt like I was truly there . . . until I realised I couldn’t go & hug my brother Ron who was standing so lonely initially at the end 🙁 . . . But it didn’t take long for him to get a hug too 🙂 . . .
Dear, dear Bev . . . what a wonderful life you & Steve had together . . . so very special . . . Steve was truly one of a kind & I loved hearing what Forrest & Ron had to share about him . . . & the ‘spot-on’ perfect poems from Forrest, Sally & Em . . . I also really loved the chosen music & the wonderful selection of photos – sooo many good ones . . .
Even though I couldn’t hug you all, it really was good to be able to see you, Sally & Em, Joan, Liz & Forrest (my goodness, he looks so much like his brother!)
I send you many hugs & love ❤️ to help you live through & hopefully mend some of this heartbreak loss . . . & I wish you & the girls as much happiness as you’re able to find in the cracks with your gorgeous families around you . . .
I also send a big hug to Joan (you really are looking so well & I hope you are feeling that way too despite this heartache ) & to Liz & to Forrest – I wish I could’ve given you a big hug too . . .
I shall be making a donation to the Prostate Cancer Foundation in honour of Steve & have lit a candle which now sits with my other dearly departed loved ones on the mantel shelf over a cosy wood fire . . . But now I shall fix myself a drink & toast Steve toodle-pip! & I’ll think of him when I do a crossword.

Bev, Sally & Emily wish we could have been with on this very sad day, but know we are all with in spirit. Look after each other always. Love from Uncle Jim Nicker, Gwenda, George & family. xxx
My sincere condolences to you beautiful family, I know you cherished them with great pride. Bushy was a great work make, always with a smile, happy and easy going. Getting in at the lunch truck at breakfast time was alway priority of the day. Mulling over the hardest decision of the day and always returning to the daily favorites. R.I.P Bushy you will always be remembered as great work mate..
Such a beautiful service. Full of laughs, tears and wonderful memories.
Steve – thank you for being such a kind person to me. Welcoming me into your home from the age of 10, always making me laugh and being such an amazing person to be around. I will miss your stories.
Bev, Sal, Em and the entire Deane family – you have all of my love.

Memories of our fun golf games at Montuna. Did he still paint his putter different colours so it would work better? Condolences to you Forrest and Stephen’s family. Gone but never forgotten

May you rest in peace!

Thank you Bushy for the countless chats and yarns about all things camping, beer and music.
Your infectious laugh still echoes through our workplace and the thought of your stories bring a smile to everyone here.
You touched many lives during your time with us, and we are all the better for having you in our lives.
I will be sharing “a quick one off the wood” with you as I’m sure many others will be too.
My sincere and deepest condolences to your family and all of us who knew you.
