Wot a beautiful service today, Deepest sympathy to Mrs Quartermaine , Kym and families, Our thoughts r with u. From Ian Pauline,& Denise Jeffery

Bernie ...There never has been or never will be a man as wonderful as you. A giver to anyone no matter who they were. The biggest heart the biggest smile . And a man that never knew how to put his hand down when something needed to be done. Bernie was in like Flynn with very little or no recognition or appreciation at all. Did this bother him.. never. Goodness was his mission. Although nothing was more important to Bernie than his beautiful wife Margie his other half. Together they certainly made a whole. Plus his family. Always the worker. Now put your tools down Bernie and rest aleast for a couple of days. As everyone knows as soon as you get to heaven you will be looking down . Getting out your tools and fixing this broken planet. God was no fool when he called you for help. He certainly got the best. Thank you special man losing you broke so many hearts. and yet your no longer here to fix them. Now what? Hugs Sue

Dear Mrs Q, Deanne, Kym, Nads, Erin and families. So sorry to hear of the passing of such a special man. I have so many found memories of growing up on Regent street and hanging at your house with the “gledhow gang”. From your funny sense of humour, beaming smile and kind heart you will be sadly missed Mr Q. All my love Tanya.

Bernie you are missed a great deal. Always there to give a helping hand when asked, always with that huge Bernie smile. You always made time for a chat and welcomed new people to our Hawthorn House shed. The canaries miss the caring way you would collect grass to feed them. RIP Bernie. Love to Marg and the family.
