  6. I wasn't able to be there today, but thank you to Quinns for streaming the service.

    Mark, you will be sadly missed. Gone too soon.

    I knew you through my father, Gary Riches. My favourite memories of you will be the 2 times dad convinced me to go boating with a bunch of his friends who all thought they knew how to 'boat' but really had no idea, and collectively resulted in hilarious consequences.

    From slamming the houseboat into the bank of the Murray River multiple times trying to park as you all argued over the steering and speed whilst tackling a fast-flowing river, to becoming beached multiple times on the lake in Paynesville and everyone arguing on the best way to get out. Watching dad, you and the others all argue was brilliant entertainment.

    My thoughts are with Mark's family and friends at this time.

  26. So sad to know I won't cross paths and chat anymore. We first crossed paths as my brother John's school mate and then when we lost John all those years ago. I then had the opportunity to work with you for many years. I enjoyed your company and admired the way you worked. You were an all round good guy who will be sadly missed. My sympathy to his family and in particular his boys.
