He is indeed alive today, a year on from this clip. He’s had a tough year. But still goi going. He’s my great uncle/grand uncle. On Good Friday many of his more immediate family made the trek to Perth for a group photo or two. I know he would be thrilled and humbled by all the comments here. While not a direct quote, his general attitude is to not just wake each day and be alive but to actively live each day. ❤
