Ron and Maria were our sailing friends. Many a weekend spent together. Ron was such a good mate of my skipper Kaye Austin. They will be enjoying a Rum together somewhere on the sea. Fair weather boys, enjoy.

Dad, we will never forget this day spent with you. The last day you were able to talk and laugh with us. It was an absolute pleasure to wheel you around the gardens and such a delight to have you sing at karaoke with me. We never guessed that a week later you'd be gone. While we are all sad, we are happy for you to be pain free at last and surrounded by your Angels. Love you forever, Warwick & Kaye, Leona, Aaron & Brandy, Brooklyn, Bailey Angel and your mate Beau (woof you)

Dad
You were there when I came into this world and I am so blessed to have been by your side when you departed this world.
You were your true stoic self and put up a brave fight to the very end.
You are now free of pain.
"May the seabreeze fill your Sails and your next adventure begin"
Love Leanne Barry and family
