A Good Life

Matt and Rose with their family - August '09
















Matt Moore, Dennis's father, passed away this morning, 7 August, 2010, on his 89th birthday.  He led a good life, serving his country in World War 2 and working hard all his life to raise six children.  Dennis will remember him for so many things, and for me, I will always remember his sense of humour and his great stories.  He will be sadly missed, and we are greatful that his passing was a peaceful one.

We are in Broome, waiting to catch our flight to Melbourne.  It is expected that the funeral will be on Thursday.  The family requests no flowers be sent.  A single wreath will accompany the coffin.
