Gilbert Mackey Tribute Onlinetributes.com.au

You've left wonderful tributes to Auntie Phil and Uncle Gil, Richard. You were the closest to them of the four of you so it is fitting that you should do this. We and the wider family have been dismayed by what Angela, Phillip and Gerald have done to the memory of Auntie Phil and Uncle Gil. Not only have they turned against their parents, they have turned their back on the Church. We've all heard how they succumbed to greed, lied and cheated and fought amongst themselves over the house at Avoca. It is awful what they have done. They claim to be devout Catholics yet they broke the commandmants and the Churche's teachings about being honest, not greedy, about doing the right things, not being selfish, about honouring thy father and thy mother. They have chosen eternal damnation rather than share the use of the beach house that Auntie Phil and Uncle Gil built for all of you and your families to share. This has saddened us so much. We really don't want to have anything more to do with them if at all possible. It is shameful. Please keep true to Auntie Phil and Uncle Gil. It is all up to you know. The other three have abandoned everything and we don't understand why, given the example your parents' set and the teacings of the Church.
