BONGERS, Ben
25/09/1947 – 22/03/2018
On 22nd March, Dad made his final road trip home listening to Willie Nelson’s “On The Road Again”. His girls (Dads sheep) were in fine form yelling out to him as he basked in the glorious sunshine. Afterward, we settled him into his beautiful room at St John’s and spent our afternoon listening to his favourite music and enveloping him with love and laughter. As the last rays of light fell behind the Warby’s, our beautiful Dad grew his angel wings and peacefully slipped away to be reunited with his beloved Rusty.
…Best Last Day Ever Dad…
Precious and much loved Dad of Tammy and Bianca.
Loved father-in-law of Greeny and Konrad.
Adored Opa of Benji, Isaac and Ava.
