Guys
I would keep the donations open.
Beefy is 110% and will do the rite thing.
I havent donated as yet,I intend making a reasonable donation but it cant happen till my pay goes in later in the week.
Keith has offered to provide statement print outs to anybody that wants one.
Keith hasnt been online as he has lost his job as the company he works for closed,the computer went with it.All is good,he already has started a new job.

Lets show we are more than just words, this family needs our help. Its Australia Day and these are fellow Australians that need our help. A couple of bucks each is less than a can of beer. lets show we care.Quote:

Hey Guys,
Just for those who could not be there,
We left in a convoy of Land rovers shadowing the hearse as it wound it's way to the chapel. It was apparent that for a guy that walked this earth a mere 36 years the impact that he made was huge, I have never seen such an out pouring of grief for a person that others reffered to as friend.
Now Chris had married his girl, and taken his step daughter into his heart and as his mother-in-law recounted, she was his daughter such was the bond they formed.
Having met his young family (his young son blissfully unaware why the house had been overun by strangers) briefly today and to see the tears falling from his little girls face would turn anyone even a big lump like me into mush, and unashamedly it did, the loss that they are feeling now and as his little bloke grows into a teen he will continue to miss the old man.
It's too sad for words that the unborn baby that Karlee is carrying will never have the pleasure of fishing in his jocks with his dad (one of Chris's many talents apparently.)
We can't prevent that kind of hardship but we can put a band aid on the immediate graze in the skin, the burden of life which is financial.
My thanks goes to zephyr for just being a mate to Chris, caring and being there with a story or two afterwards.
To Beefy for being a legend whilst having **** loads of drama's in his own life!
Sara and Simon for helping out with the whole deal giving advice and the like.
Landyandy for being a staunched advocate and being a huge support through the different elements of making this thing happen.
A big thanks to the Hardie family for allowing us AULROIANS to share with them at such a sad time.
REMEMBER GUYS THE FUNERAL MAY WELL BE OVER, BUT THE RE-BUILDING OF THEIR LIVES STARTS TOMORROW, A COUPLE OF BUCKS CAN GO A LONG WAY IF YOU ARE IN NEED CHEERS ALL!!!
Thanks BIG FELLA.
You sumed the day up so well.
Andrew
Any final figure on what was raised, assuming there were a few donations post Chris's funeral?
Cheers
