Sarah, Pete, George and Tom.
No words can describe the grief we feel for you and your extended family, we can only imagine how devastated you are.
Knowing your family from the time the children were born has been a privelidge, in the early years, car trips to kindy, holidays at Kidds Bush and then following the progress of the children over the years has been such a pleasure.
Jock always had a twinkle in his eye -right from his early days and had grown into a fine young man. What an absolute trooper he was during his cancer and treatment, as you all were. You should be so proud of all your boys.
This will leave a massive hole, to say the least.
We send our love -today and always. Please let us know if there is absolutely anything you need.
Love always
Kate, Geoff, Nick and Gemma Stark.

Gone far too soon, in a tragedy that should never have happened. The shock of his loss is felt deeply by everyone who knew him - and even by those who didn´t but now carry his name in their hearts.

Jock was more than a name in the news. He was a son, a friend, a good man with a life still full of promise. His smile, his laugh, and his spirit will never be forgotten. No words can truly ease the pain of losing someone in such a heartbreaking way, but we hold on to the memories and the love he left behind.

To Jock´s family and friends - may you feel the warmth of the support around you, and may you find some peace in knowing how deeply he was loved.

Rest in peace, Jock. We will remember you
