I Worked under that roof while doing my trade in the company of your wonderful father, Max, and your beautiful mother, Shirl.
Also being able to work along side a bloke I miss dearly, Eden legend Glenn Switzer.
For me it was a blessing each day to work there, I went from a boy to a man and matured greatly under the watchful eyes of genuine gentlemen I worked beside. It was an honour to be able to say 'I worked there'.
To know she's going to be there no more is hard to believe.
Thank you for all you've done for me in the past, thank you for all you've done for the place I call home and thank you for being the man you are.
Imlay Street will not be the same.
Take care and best wishes Rob.
