A truer star has never shinned so brightly. For one person you gave so much and took so little. Forever in our hearts.

I have known Bluey since the early 1970’s. He transferred to Nhill and I filled his vacancy at Horsham. Huge boots to fill as he was a thorough gentleman and well liked by all that knew him. I never heard him utter a bad word about anyone. He returned to Horsham and was the prosecutor for years and never took a backward step, always fought hard for a conviction. Bluey you were one of a kind and was an absolute pleasure to have known you. You will be sadly missed, condolences to Judy and families. R.I.P. mate. 💙Ian “Billy” & Wendy.
