Tributes

1. Uncle Brian, you were always a very special uncle to me and also my godfather. You were such a giving and caring person with a great sense of humour, and would always greet us all with your beautiful big smile.
   Although we hadn’t been in contact of late, you were always in my thoughts and I have many happy memories of you when I was growing up, and most of these memories involved lots of laughing and stirring. You and Aunty Doris were always there for everyone, and we all thank you both for this and also for taking exceptional care of Rita for all these years.
   Aunty Doris and Trish, I am so sad for you both at this time. The mass was beautiful and I’m sorry that we were not all able to make it there in person to be with you today. Please know that we are all thinking of you, and are here for you if you need anything at all.

2. Dear Auntie Doris, Trish, Rita and Chris,
   Our hearts are breaking for you. Uncle Brian had a special place in our hearts and we have such wonderful memories of him, particularly as children. Auntie Doris, I remember being at your happy wedding with the reception at Nanna's. I remember you as godparents to my sister. I remember you as parents to the lovely Trish. Being at the farm in Pyalong. Any time I think of you both, it is always of you smiling and laughing.
   The Mass was beautiful and I am sorry that we were all unable to be there for you and Uncle Brian. But know that we are looking forward to seeing you all very soon.
   May you rest in blessed peace Uncle Brian.

   Love, Michele and Dennis, Sophia and Jaicob XXXXXXX

3. Uncle Brian, Tony and I have such fond memories of you. Both you and Aunty Doris were always there for us and we both remember the funniest of times that we all shared. When we think of the Mighty Magpies, we always think of you. Thank you for helping us all on countless occasions. It will never be forgotten. A great man with whom we have the upmost respect for.
   Love from Darren, Cody and Tony

4. Brian, we are so sad that due to Covid restrictions we didn’t get to meet you in person. Thanks to our FaceTime chats with you and Doris, and all the stories Trish has told us we could see why you were so loved and why Chris spoke so highly of you. We loved your sense of humour! Our families are already bonded together and we will do everything we can to help Chris look after Trish, Doris and Rita. Rest in Peace. Love from Mal, Steve and Family xx
