  3. While our time together was short, I learned so much of how to be a man and navigate life off morals you lived by. You’ve laid a great blue print on how to be a father and it’s only up to me to make it even better.
    When the bush is cold, the fishing might be slow or it’s just a tough day, at least i know you’ll be next to me through it all.
    Love you forever and always.
    Caleb

  4. Thank-you for being the father any little girl could dream of. From laughing to teaching, you taught me not only life skills of camping and fishing but how to have fun and live life to the fullest, thank you for teaching me to be such a strong willed person yet knowing when to be soft, kind and caring, the amount of stories i carry in my heart will always be there making me think of you.
    I love you always and forever.
    Amelia.

  26. Our deepest sympathies to Peter, Jan , Jeremy and the extended Riddle/ Ellis family on the loss of your beloved son, brother, nephew and cousin.
    PPeter and Jan, it’s hard to believe your first born is gone as we share so many memories and experiences together. From Peter playing football with Alan and Jan getting up to all sorts of adventures with our group when we were at Central Gippsland Hospital as trainee nurses. We also shared being pregnant together in 1976, living close to each other when the boys were growing up….Hoping you can hold onto all those memories of then and now. Love and memories for ever from Brenda, Alan Kanavan and family.
