  7. Matt
    Words cannot describe the impact you have had on not only my life, but our whole family. To have you and Nan in our home for 6 months every year for the last 11 years makes me feel so privileged and grateful. Our home was and will always be your 2nd home.
    I loved all the boys talks, trips to farms, ag shows, and fishing trips in the boat and although you always showed me up, it was never about catching fish I enjoyed.
    I still look for you every day I walk in the door, although I can’t see you, what I do see is so much of you in Jacinta, Maddison and Harlan.
    You can rest easy with Nan by your side knowing Jacinta and the kids are making you proud and getting looked after.
    You are more than Jacinta’s grandfather to me. You are a true friend and part of our family who will be dearly missed.
    We love you oldest Pop
    Chris, Jacinta, Maddison, Harlan and Ruby.

  12. Pop,
    It breaks our hearts to know you will be gone. Everyone will miss your Conversations, Common Sense, Advice, Caring Nature an your dedication to your Family and Community.
    I will always remember with great fondness every visit, sleep over, holiday trip, day outings and of course helping you and Nan Volunteer and helping in the shop.
    I know that Dad, Mum, Gerard, Kyle and I, as did other Members of the family, always gained clarity, advice, from a vast mixture of Conversations from Funny to Serious over the years.
    Be reassured and Rest easy that we will all be ok, we are Glad that you are at Peace and Reunited with Nan.
    I love you,

    Because l had heard on the news that WA was reopening, I was so excited for him, l tried to call Matt this morning , I know he was waiting to be able to get over to WA, only to hear his phone has been disconnected, l tried again, l know he had medical issues and then l googled his name and blow me down, here we are, he and Leslie have been friends with Kay and Mick Molan forever ( my Parents), Matt and Les always popped in often when we lived close and occasionally when we lived in Echuca, he was always interesting, he and Dad stayed friends of course after they both lost their sweethearts and Matt continued to try to visit with Dad after Dad decided to stay in Sunnyside care.
    Deepest sympathies to you all, l was really glad to see he made it finally to WA.
    Now Matt and Mick will be telling so many happy stories and disagreeing at times on the sequence of events.
    Much love and thoughts to all. Jenni Molan
