Dad was an amazing man
He married Mum just as World War 2 was about to start,
raised a family of 10 children in war ravaged and
poverty stricken Malta without Mum ever having done
a single days work for financial assistance...
How could she with 10 children to raise?
He did it all on his own!
!
He took the biggest decision of his life in 1956 when he thought that
it was best for the family's prospects to pack up everything
and start a new life in Australia.
It proved to be the decision of a wise and courageous man.
!
Throughout a long, eventful life, Dad always put Mum and his
ever growing family at the forefront of his priorities.
His proudest moment was the anniversary of 58 years of marriage
and 60 years from the time he met Mum...he was planning a huge
family celebration for their 60th anniversary at the time of his death.
!
With almost all of his 10 children, their spouses, 23 grandchildren
and 5 great grandchildren surrounding his bedside as he took his last breath,
a great man left this earth in the knowledge that his 83 years upon it
were responsible for producing so much life and love for so many people.

GOODBYE
DAD, WE ALL LOVE YOU
!
