Guestbook

I was saddened to hear of Uncle Terry's passing. As kids growing up in Appleby Cres we all thought of the parents as Aunties and Uncles. My dad had many a great time with Uncle Terry especially at football games. Rest in peace Uncle Terry. A great man has fallen. Sending love and deepest sympathy to Aunty Carol all all the wider Taylor Family from the Poultons
