Neighbour and family friend David Broderick has been explaining what he represented to the local community:

“Number one he was around for so long, numerous generations from would’ve known him and loved him.

“A great neighbour and a great friend and just involved in everything.

“I think he’s spent time involved in all the organisations within the community.

“That aside, I think what made him most popular was that he always seemed to have a smile and he was just a gentleman.
