Hey Dad
Just at work here thinking of you on Anzac Day. We had great times and memories on this important day. It will always hold a special place in my heart.
You were an inspiration to all your family and a treasured friend to me. You still form a great part of my life as I struggle with my own insecurities and decisions in my work – work that you devoted 30 years to serving the community. Combined we have given 65 years to keeping the streets safe and upholding the laws of the land.
Hoping that there is that life after death we have all believed and had faith in and that we will meet again without pain and suffering.
May God continue to look after your soul
PETER.

Dear Pop
I miss the days and nights when I would pop into your place on my way home from somewhere and have a kit kat with you or bring a treat to share. I miss the jokes I used to tell that you would laugh at and I miss just talkng to you and telling you all about my success and my job and you telling me you knew so and so (you always knew someone I would be speaking about)
I miss you more than you will ever know and even when I pull up in your driveway or go to the club for dinner I still expect to see you there xx

Tuesday, 2 October 2012

Each day goes by but never without a thought of my dad & how much I love & miss him. Sleep peacefully until we meet in a much happier time.

I hope and pray that one day we can all be reunited.

BRUCE COUSENS
As I write,
Bruce Cousens is doing it tough in a care facility in Sydney.
Bruce Cousens was the single most important person in the establishment of the Inverell Rugby Club. His family came to Inverell in the middle of the ‘60’s and Maureen and Nigel (‘the Colt’) lived in various places around town as Bruce became a very effective Crown Prosecutor, locking up evil doers and advising and correcting many others including some rugby players.
Bruce became President of the newly reformed Inverell Rugby Union Club and, with the help of many others, began a building process both on and off the field to make Rugby a part of life in the town. With many years, executives, working bees, raffles, bus trips and wins and losses I believe that aim has been achieved.
He became Zone President during very successful Central North years, and was elected for many years to Country Rugby Union and thus Australian Rugby Union. He subsequently travelled to South Africa prior to the 1987 World Cup in Sydney where he was appointed in charge of Security for that event.
A very capable sportsman himself, he lost most of the sight in one eye from a ‘bouncer’ while playing A Grade cricket on Varley Oval. His personal rugby career included playing for Drummoyne in Sydney, Inverell when it was part of New England, and a few games when the Highlanders moved to Central Northern competition. Bruce also played Tennis and was an exceptional Squash player, although he didn’t look like one. Ask Stew Campbell, Barry Ridde or John Enchelmaier who played successively after he gave them 8 points start and the serve – just for an 18 gallon keg which was a week’s wages in those days.
Bruce was and is a n all – round ‘A grade’ bloke and I’m sure the club and all who know him wish him all the very best in a tough time.
