  2. Our deepest sympathy to Andy and your family.
    I have wonderful thoughts about us when you lived at the bottom of Gould St in Newborough.
    We would ride our bicycles and go camping with my brother Mike and my cousin’s Kiellties. I also remember going riding with you in your 2 door car. And when your family moved to Springvale we used to catch the train and stay at your Mum’s and Dad’s house and go to the theatre in Melbourne.
    Love
    Terry & Wanda Hill
