Dear Lyn, Amanda,Mellisa and Lucas.
So sorry to hear of Barney's passing. He was our best man at our wedding 55 years ago as was Bob at yours the following year. I have many happy memories of the times Bob and I had over the years with you and Barney.
I watched the livestream yesterday, it was a lovely service.
All our love from Noeline and the late Bob Holland and family

Lynn, Amanda and Melissa, so sorry to hear about Brian passing, he was one of my favourite boat Dads, always took me along in the dinghy on dive trips, often had a cheeky smile on his face. So humble.
Wish I could have been there in person today.

Lyn - I can only imagine the hole that Brian's loss will leave, and to lose him so suddenly is so tough. My thoughts are with you and your family as you prepare to say your public farewells. Love the "to celebrate a life lived his way" - seems very apt. xx

Our condolences Lynn to you & family. Plus your grandson who Barney talked about many times with pride & fondness with Bruce.
I remember well first time I met the Pellow´s I was attending same hairdressing college as Christine
Having just left boarding school plus family living
in Coroglen coming to the big city. Our first day my parents met Mr & Mrs Pellow.A friendship between our parents was something special. I was immensely welcomed into the Pellow family.
I was invited to there farm one weekend Christine said her brother Barney would be picking both of us up after class had finished.
This would be around 1966. Barney arrived in his mini just like a bull from the farm all noise.
It was the fastest ride I had ever experienced. ( I kid you not I had my eyes closed until we arrived at the farm..
