   You were a big part of my childhood for so many years and I have so many amazing funny memories and stories that I can tell my kids and forever be thankful for!

   The only thing that gives me comfort is that you are now back together with Dad, Aunty Christine & Annette & Uncle Reg….all drinking stubbies no doubt!!

   Thank you for being an amazing brother to my Dad and also a pretty cool Uncle to me!
