Edwin Bruce Barlow

Dear Ed, If I had a million beautiful words to say about you, it would never be enough. If I sit back and tried to remember conversations had with you over the years, I would be smiling and laughing to the moon and back 1000 times over. You had a way of making one feel special and every story told always ended in laughter. Words will never be enough to say how much you will be missed. It’s hard to forget someone who gave you so much to remember. I still remember all those years ago, the afternoon you took me for a ride on the Harley down the Pacific Hwy. I had the best time ever and that memory will stay in my heart forever! I miss you already…. You will always hold a special place in my heart. Goodbye my friend… God bless you... until we meet again… love you, Teresa xox

Today was a very hard day.. A great man was put to rest! To the man who became my Godfather we will miss you dearly.. you were one of a kind. I will long for the days where our biggest dilemma was to freeze the Picnic or Timtam or eat it at room temperature! I will long for the explanation for understanding the 3 stooges and miss the look on your face while you watch!🙈🙉🙊 I will hurt because you will not be able to wrap my boys up in a kebab sandwich! Thank you for loving me.. and making this world a better place. You are off to His kingdom and you will be having a drink with all our loved ones who have passed before you.. HooRoo! Give my dad a big hug for me and I'm sure all our loved ones will take good care of you. Carol, Jordan and Lucas we are all so proud of you today, you were amazing and the day was perfect. God rest his soul and ease your pain. 🙏 We love you. From your.. Julie-Anne And the Hakko family

Dear Eddie, You had a way to make the person you were speaking with feel like the only person in the room. It doesn't matter if we hadn't seen you and Carol for 3 weeks or 3 years, you had a way to keep us in stitches, non-stop laughter and the next time we would see you, you would just pick up from where you left off. Your two beautiful sons are you legacy and we know you will protect Carol forever from up above. You are a true example of what it means to be a man, a loving husband, a nurturing father, a best friend and overall top bloke. You will be greatly missed! Love Dikran Kareena, Isadora and Gloria Totonjian xx

For many, a funeral is a ritual of loss and connection where we remember our loved ones who have passed and comfort the living. Even though the restrictions have eased starting for 1st June, 2020, the coronavirus outbreak has altered that ritual and changed the way we say goodbye: the loss remains, the connections change.

The family has the difficult decision of which fifty people will attend the funeral.  They are aware that many of you would like to attend but unfortunately, due to the restrictions in place, it is not possible.
