Following this horrific ordeal, Allan’s family wish to remember and celebrate the life of this wonderful, loving family and community man.
	Allan’s wife Jenny, and children Leon, Fiona, Teresa and Kelvin said they wanted to thank everyone as they have been absolutely overwhelmed by the calls, messages, love and support from everyone, not just in the community, but from around the world. “We’ve even had messages and calls from people in America who we met on our recent overseas holiday,” Jenny said. To celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary which was earlier in the year, Allan and Jenny had not long returned from a 15 day European River cruise, followed by a bus tour of Italy from Rome to Milan. Ironically, their river cruise was halted mid-stream for a while as they had to wait for rain – just like farmers, thought Allan! “Allan actually suggested the cruise for our anniversary – I’d been suggesting we go on one for years,” Jenny said. “The great thing was we did some things not on the itinerary that Allan wanted to do”.

Although Dick was a farmer at Pinery S.A, he enlisted and served in the Australian Army during WWII, so during the time he was away Gwen lived with her parents in Saddleworth S.A. When Dick returned home, they moved back to the family farm at Pinery, where siblings, twins Helen and John, and sister Anne joined the family.

 Allan attended Pinery Primary school and Balaklava High school. After completing his schooling, he worked with his father, and later his brother John, on their mixed farming enterprise. During the drought of 1967, Allan went with friends to work on the Jones’ farm in Jerramungup south-east of Perth. He later moved closer to Perth, to work as a tyre fitter.  His family was amused to learn that he had purchased a Mini Minor to drive while he lived in Perth! Allan returned home to the family farm and in the off-season drove a truck for Ira Jenkin, owner of Calomba Transport and also for Silky Pratt. “He kept up a good relationship with them all, and always had an interest in trucks,” his son Kelvin said.
