If you got the meaning of my post the spelling was close enough!
I may own a Ute, but don't expect me to help you move.

As far as I can ascertain, Windy is the first of our members to pass away.
A sad day old buddy, we will think of you on 24th January each year.
May you rest easy with the big Tiffy in the sky.

Danny Anderson is a member of the Rockingham Naval Association.
He has been ill for quite some time, but whenever he was feeling
reasonable, he would venture to the club to meet up with his friends,
which was pretty much all members.
It is sad that he had to pass, but if you could have seen the pain he was in
you would wish him well in his new venture...................
Sic em Danny...........

Windys Passing
I am so shocked to hear of the passing of Steve (Windy) Hill. He was a member of "MTP Charlie Class 1977 Intake. To think that a bloke i spent my time with at Nirimba has gone is gut wrenching. We have chatted on the net for the last 6 months or so and were going to organize a get together, which will now, never come.
To all you folks out there, if you get a chance to catch up with someone from your past , do it . Dont put it off. I'm certainly not going to from now on.
Rest in Peace Windy,
Your mate Bert
