Arthur was such a good bloke. You’d struggle to meet a nicer person. King Ash Bay won’t be the same without Arthur around. I’m really going to miss our afternoon beers and conversations about fishing, crabbing and the going’s on of the club. I hope the fish are biting and the beers are cold for you old mate. Rest in peace Artie

Rest peacefully Uncle Arthur. You sure did live life to the fullest, was always nice to hear from the boys (Callum and Jake) telling me they had seen you down at the boat ramp. So nice you all shared a love of fishing. Wherever you are I hope the fish are always on the bite!
