Rest in Peace Grandpa.
Ben and I will forever be grateful of your support and interest in our sporting careers.
Fridays when you “looked after” us after school during primary school were so memorable and will be forever cherished.
Lots of Love,
Will

A lovely father in law. Michael was a stalwart of the community who loved his family, cricket and football! He had a warm dry sense of humour and strong personal values. Will miss him so much and raise a glass of whisky in his memory!
