Tributes
  1. Ed, (Uncle Ed) was an essential part of our family gathering at Christmas, always greeting Gilda with a provocative ‘hello Curly!” (not a curl in sight) and a jovial ‘Gooday!’ to the rest of us. His Xmas cards were always delivered by hand to show that he thought of us. We will miss him. RIP Ed

  5. Visited with Cousin Ed six years ago when we were back in Australia. Ed very graciously took us on a mini tour of Bairnsdale, and we saw all the places our families used to visit so many years ago …. so glad that we had the opportunity to visit with him then.

  6. Edmund was a true gentleman — always sweet, polite, and sincerely grateful. He found joy in people and in simple moments, never wanting for much and only accepting help when he truly felt it was needed. It was an absolute pleasure and privilege to support him with his Home Care Package, and to know him during that time. He will be remembered for his gentle nature, quiet strength, and the warmth he brought to those around him.
