  11. Bern, you have been the most truly amazing person in my life, an absolute outstanding example of kindness and compassion for others and literally like a second father to me.
    All of the community which you have touched in such a true hearted and generous way, will miss your kind spirit and will be saddened to not see your smile around this vast countryside.
    I will always follow your teachings in my life and teach that to others of how to be a truly amazing human, treat others how you want to be treated yourself and help out wherever and whenever we can.
    I’ve known you and been a part of each others lives for the best part of 21 years and the sudden news that I won’t be seeing you on our next trip down to Victoria, truly devastated myself and the family. All our deepest love to Wendy for this tragic loss of true hearted life.
    I love you mate, I will always remember everything about you and your heart of gold.
    Ride true, ride straight and ride fast, through the places of which one day we will meet again.
    Requiscat in Pace (Rest in Peace) – Dave, Kaz & Annie.
