Happy Memories

Brigid Wright Jun 12, 2010

John, Pat, their wonderful family and Tumut were such a big, happy part of my, Mary, Patrick and Kate's childhood and teenage years. I feel really fortunate to have so many treasured memories from that time. It is so sad that John has gone. He is being sorely missed by Dad (Max). What a fantastic example of loyalty, not to mention longevity, that group of men displayed with their great friendship. Thinking of all the Scroopes at this time and always. Love, Brigid Wright (Bridie McGuigan) x

Beers and BBQ's by the passionfruit vine....

Angela Isaac May 01, 2010

My memories of Scroopie, aside from being one of dad's best mates, was that he could swear like a trooper and cook a pretty good snag on the bbq! The glass of beer in one hand the tongs in the other and THAT apron!

Dad taught me many things. Many things. One of them was how to play golf. He was no good at fishing and neither am I . Some of the family are. Thanks dad. You will be sadly missed by all those how love you. Yet I know in my heart you are not far away. Love Whiz.
