Tributes
  1. Very sad to hear of Peter’s death. He was such a clever and progressive inspiration to all in the horticultural field. His legacy and that of Lois (Dec) will live on at the Botanical Gardens. Sympathies go to Joan (daughter in law) Jeremy, Katie and their families, and to Max who was family, friend and colleague at the Botanical Gardens.
    Both Chris and I have many life long happy memories of time spent with Peter camping on the Murray . You will be remembered fondly. Rest in peace all your hard work is done.

  2. To Deb, my sincere condolences on the death of your beloved Dad. What a great bloke he was. Coach of the Gol Gol under 14s in the 60s. A very generous, fun loving Boss and friend to Mum at his nursery. RIP Pete.

  3. To Deb, Brian, Joan and families. So sorry to hear of Uncle Pete’s passing. He certainly brought a great sense of joy and laughter into the lives of all family and friends. A generous gentleman with a great mischievous spirit that certainly matched his ‘blood brother’ Neil’s spark! May you both shine brightly together. RIP Uncle Pete

    The Fawdry family have known Peter & Lois ever since I can remember.
