A good man gone - hard to believe. Roofy was the first forum member I met when he went out of his way to visit me at home & welcome me to the fold. A true gentleman. Glad to have made your acquaintance Roofy. RIP.
Cannot believe it. I'm gutted. RIP Sir roofy you will be missed mate.

Don't know how to process that. I just feel sick at the moment.
This is a huge loss to the community, he was a truly good friend to the forum and myself personally.
RIP Roofy old mate.

Wow, blown away with this news. Deepest symapthy to Jane and family, he will be sorely missed by all who met him.
I just came in from out over in the paddock.
Saw this and Just blown away.
First met up with some from here at Licola 18 and spent most the time with Roofy catching up and so enjoyed his company. So much to speak about as we went to the same tech school (Warragul) as it turned out. We did not live far from each other back then.
Very sad to here of the loss.

To you sir Roofy.Attachment 77296
This is the way I saw Roofy, you may interrupt it in other ways
YOUR TOOL BOX WILL BE
RAFFLED BY-AND-BYE.
I must shortly leave the banker,
For my card is long exempt,
The fire of youth has vanished from my eye,
And the saddest thought to-day
Is that when I've paesed away
My tool box will be raffled by-and-bye.
I have roamed around the country,
But I'm getting stiff and old,
And now I'm travelling home again to die,
Though you're young and strong to-day
Yet the years will pass away,
And your tool box will be raffled by-and-bye.
When I was but a 'prentice lad
just starting at the trade
Some chump would make me mad enough to cry,
But I heeded not his chaff,
For the saying made me laugh,
That his tool box would be raffled by-and-bye
When I became a journeyman,
And started on the road,
With pockets light, but spirits always high,
I was never known to, shirk
From the hardest kind of work—
But, my tool box will be raffled by-and-bye.
Sometimes I thought it hard,
When I struck a stranger's yard,
And a " rumper " worked with malice in his eye,
But I merely used to grin,
As I said, " My boy go in,
But your tool box will be raffled by-and-bye.
You may often meet a sneak
Who, with manners soft and meek,
Will do his best to down you on the sly ,
Keep your eye upon the lad,
Let the saying make you glad "
That his tool box will be raffled by-and-bye.
I must end my little song,
And be jogging right along ;
My journey's end is drawing very nigh—
Take my advice : be fair,
Act the man upon the square,
For your tool box will be raffled by-and-bye.
Stay safe mate.
What an absolute bloody tragedy.
One of the most genuine, kind and authentic humans you were ever likely to meet.....the hat and the voice so distinct. He will be missed.
Roofy used to regularly check in on me with a message when I was going through my illness and I always enjoyed having a quiet beer with him on trips we did when he was about....that dry humour and life lived.
So sad and all the love and thoughts to Jane, his family and those that were close to him.
A bloody tragedy......
Hugs to all....

Simply in shock.
Such a top bloke taken way to soon.
RIP, Sir Roofy.
Back at camp now and still have no words to properly describe our mate!
He was one of the last of a true blue bloke with a heart of gold, great person to sit back at a fire and talk shit.
Always had a good saying to every problem discussed and always looked on the bright side of life.
Jane, if you’re reading this mate I just want to hug ya, I don’t even know what to say to you, big hugs mate, my condolences to you my friend but I’m also happy he found this place here.
We had a lot of chats at camp tonight on how Roofy loved us young idiots playing up and damaging our cars watching old mate shake his head at us but always keen to jump in as a passenger and rip it up in one of our pig GQ’s. he loved us and we loved him even more, love ya Roofy, catch up for a chat one day old mate!!!

Sir Roofy, a man of many words, not. But those he spoke were well chosen. We will all miss him. My deepest sympathies to you and your family, Jane.
Not news you want to hear on holidays.
Was such a privilege to have met roofy and help him out. There isnt much else to say everyone has already said.
He was a top bloke which the world will miss.
Condolences to Jane and family.
RIP old mate.
