  29. Treasured lifelong friend of the Whitty family.
    Always a presence in our lives.
    Memories of the old days, the parties with the O’Donnell family,
    Nev courting Celie in his Morris Oxford, making it back from the honeymoon in time to be Godparents, the beautiful friendship with Mum and Dad, and how wonderful he (& Ceil) were to our Mum in her final months.
    We’ll miss his stories. his smile, his cheeky laugh and his hugs that could fix anything.
    Our love and sympathy to Celie and all your beautiful family. Such a huge loss for you all.
    Rest in peace and God bless you, Nev.
    We will always remember you with love.

  36. RIP Nev. have known you for over 60 years. Great bloke. Always a yarn. Always a laugh and reminisce. You loved your family. They meant everything to you. Condolences to you, Celie, Paul and everyone. As I’ve found with my mum and dad, their bodies might no longer be around but somehow they’re still there in our hearts and minds in a special, very personal and close way. Sorry I can’t be with you on the day as I have medical stuff going on but I’ll be thinking of you all 🩷

  38. Hunter Road was my ‘second home’ in my teens, and the Andersons, my ‘second family’’! So many weekends spent hanging out with Annette, and two holidays away to Seaspray and Lakes Entrance. Spending time with Neville exposed me everything that a wonderful father is – warm, loving, supportive, mischievous, invested in all facets of his children’s lives, whether it was sports, baking for their special occasions, and putting his hand to anything required without hesitation. Neville was always up for a good laugh and chat. He was the most adoring husband to beautiful Celie, and displayed to me what a true gentleman is. His impact has been immense and he will be truly missed. My love and heartfelt sympathy to Celie and all the Anderson clan and your extended families xx

    I have so many happy memories of times spent on Christmas eve playing backyard cricket and the stories shared of the mischief he got up to with dad and my uncles.
    Mr Anderson always greeted you with his beautiful smile and massive hug. He will be missed greatly.
    We extend our love and deepest sympathy to Celie, Carmel, Annette, Neville John, David, Susan, Rachel, Paul and all your families.
    Sorry we cannot be there today to celebrate Neville’s life with you.
    With love

  44. Neville was a deeply loved and cherished friend to us both, and a much-adored ‘Uncle’ Nev to our daughters and their families. He will forever hold a special place in our hearts.
    For over 70 years, Neville and Celie have been there through life’s many joys and challenges. Neville’s friendship, wisdom, support, and kindness were a constant source of strength and happiness.
    We are so grateful to have been embraced as part of the Anderson extended family over the years. The memories we shared – family celebrations, holidays, and countless special moments – will always be treasured.
    We will miss Neville’s cheeky humour, his radiant smile, and the warmth of his hugs more than words can express. We are better people for having him in our lives.
    We send our love and deepest sympathy to Celie, Carmel, Annette, Neville John, David (dec), Susan, Rachel, Paul, and all the family. Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. May you find peace in the love that surrounds you, your wonderful memories and the incredible legacy he leaves behind.
    With love,
    Bernie and Brian Wolf,
    Leanne (dec), Karen, Janette, Nicole, and their families
