  2. Dear Kim, Damien, Renee & families & the extended Williamson families you are all in our thoughts at this sad time on the loss of your dad, brother & grandfather.

    Geo you were one larriken who enjoyed life to the fullest. We remember all the times we shared at Brunts Transport over many years never a dull moment if it was in the workshop, office or smoko hut you were always larger than life with your jokes or comments.
    Some of your sayings or what you said to us girls in the office were priceless. My goodness no one could get away with that today .

    Geo the rebuilds have all been done & the maintance is all up to date time for you to relax & enjoy some time & a beer up in the highway in the sky with so many fellow truckers that have gone before you.
    We are so sorry we cannot be with you all to celebrate Geo’s life & remember all the times we have shared over many years but we will have a beer or 2 for him tomorrow night.
    RIP Geo

  5. Brother GEO you were one of my mentors when i first started driving you could get the old 1418 cracking never forget the day the gearbox fell out of it and you come up to me and said i think she is stuffed big brother. Jenny and i were shocked when we got the news as you were only over 4 days before hand talking about the old truck so to Renee Simon and families our sincere condolences and prayers so keep the shiny side up Brother GEO.

  21. Sincere sympathy to George's family and friends. George was such an amazing human and he was loved by everyone and I can't imagine him saying a bad word about anyone. He played a lot of tricks on many people over the years. The doors of Heaven will open for George and he will be welcomed by all his family and friends who passed before him.

  24. My Dad,
    The man I adore and love more than anything in this world losing you is like losing a part of myself that I will never be able to find again. You were my rock and guiding light through this life and this world will never be as bright without you.
    You will forever be in my heart and soul and every time I feel the sun on my face I know it’s you smiling down on me and holding me in your sure embrace once more.

  27. I’m not sure what to do dad, i thought I’d get a warning, I thought I’d have time to prepare, but you didn’t even finish your last long neck. That quick halfa sure took a turn. I watch the messages of love and support flow in and it just shows how many lives you touched.
    I just keep expecting you to walk through the door or sing out but it just doesn’t happen, I’ll get everyone through this but bloody hell old man bit of warning next time yeah. Give em a hug up there don’t steal all pa’s beer.
    Till we meet again 10-4, over and out.
