Condolences to you Luke on the passing of Jocka. A popular and respected team mate of the Koondrook Tigers. Rest peacefully Jocka, you have earned it.
Love ya Dad. I look forward to giving you a great send off on Friday. Go Tigers!
Jocka we were mates at school, in the same class and grew up together and you were a great mate of mine. You fought long and hard to beat that mongrel thing, RIP mate.
Great memories of you Jocka, growing up with the Lewis and Pippin families – “One Big Family”. RIP Jocka.
You fought hard to beat the big C Jocka. RIP mate.
A Tiger teammate 1965-72 and life long mate. The big “C” was your hardest opponent Jocka, but you put up a great fight. No more pain. Rest in peace till we meet again.

Jocka you put up a brave fight.
