Your unique brilliance, honesty and kindness
You gave, never counting the cost.
With deep humility, we grieve
your absence from our lives,
And our irreplaceable loss.

With eloquence you bared your soul
And gently kept me in your thrall, My tender love, our loyal friend,
You were a cut above us all.

Dearly loved by partner Barbie and family, Nic, Ava, Kahlia, Tony, loyal friends and greatful colleagues.

You will always be with us dear Charlie.
