Beautiful funeral service. Glad I was able to join the live stream. So many good memories of grandpa.
My favourite memory would have to be the yabbying at Hattah lakes. I went on to (unsuccessfully) breed my own yabbys in fish tanks at a kid in Bendigo. :)

(Great) Grandpa Max went on several trips to Japan in the 1970s with the Australian Dried Fruits Association. Many decades later even he was probably amazed by his ‘United Nations’ of grandchildren and great grandchildren.
We all have great family memories of tractor rides and running around the drying racks on the block, along with festive lunches followed by games of cricket afterwards.
Much love to the Whiting clan from afar,
Michael, Mio, Kaiga, and Riku Griffiths
