  2. Potty, we were so lucky to call you our close friend. Your big generous heart touched so many. We knew so many different versions of you through the years but one of my favourites was seeing you with all the kids especially your own 2 beautiful girls Katie and Zoe. We will miss you making us all laugh and your big cheeky grin.
    The heaviness we all feel right now shows the love that we all felt for you and the big potty shaped hole you have left for us. We will never forget you and we will always miss you.
    Still can't believe you're gone mate.
    Sending my love and thoughts to the Piera family at this difficult time.

  3. Love you Potty. You were my favourite babysitter. Boney M, Xbox and laughs. I loved it when you would call me Pasty and pretend to throw me into your oven. Whenever you came through the front door at Aunty Julia’s and Uncle Russell’s I would get excited. The fun has arrived!
    You were so generous and always shared your snacks with me at the assembly.

    Sending lots of love to your family and friends.

    Noni ♥️

  13. Our sincerest condolences to Potty’s family, friends and especially his wife and children. We remember the fun times playing cricket, bowling potty out (sorry potty), having a good laugh, then have a BBQ & a couple bevvies. Potty was always a pretty funny guy, great sense of humour and a lovely bloke. We hope to see you soon, reunited with your wife & babies, Rev 21:3,4.

  14. Daniel my little brother I'm so grateful for the time you were in our lives. Something I only realised more recently was just how much you looked up to me.
    An admiration I do not deserve and even though you are no longer here to see it I still intend to earn.
