So sad to hear that your dad has left his loving family. Those deeds that he has done can never be erased and thanks for sharing you Dad with us. |

A measure of mans life is not only what he has acheived or accomplished but in the quality of his children. Your father must have been a great man. |

Thanks, Guys Yesterday, I met the chaplain who will be conducting Dad's service at the RSL Village in Narrabeen, it none other but Bob Durbin, a fellow MOBI from the January 1970 intake. Bruce D |

Hi Bruce, I am sorry to hear of your loss. We are deeply affected and influenced by our parents (and particularly) our dads. Yours has clearly had a positive influence on your life. Vale Mike Downes |

Sorry to hear of your loss, Bruce. In late '42 and part of '43, my father was in the same area as yours doing convoy duty. Perhaps their ships passed by each other. |

I have just copied this from Facebook: It is with a very sad heart that I am informing members of this page of the passing of Ex Warrant Officer Coxswain Geoff Carroll. Geoff passed away this morning at his home in Malacoota with his wife Ex Supply Officer Jenny Lloyd by his side. A great man gone too soon and will be missed by many. RIP Geoff. I served with Geoff on Hobart and have never met a nicer bloke. Scrupulously fair with those he had to deal with via his job, but absolutely ruthless in dealing with those who would do wrong by those in our crew. The world is a sadder place with his passing. Vale, Geoff. May you have calm seas and gentle breezes on your journey, and perhaps a stop here and there for a bit of fishing. I will miss you old mate. |
