"Our Dad was a huge character, larger than life. He was our best friend ... our world! We will desperately miss him but we take comfort knowing we were all here by his side in his final days."

"How lucky are we to have a Dad like you."

"Without people like my Dad we might not have seen the growth in the industry during the 70s and 80s and indirectly, Australian films such as The Man From Snowy River, Breaker Morant, Picnic at Hanging Rock, Priscilla, Muriel's Wedding, Crocodile Dundee [and] Strictly Ballroom."

"Legend! What a great guy. Another great Australian. Thank you Angry for all the wonderful music and memories. Condolences to all friends and family."
