To my dear friend Charlie, you taught me a lot about life my friend and how fragile it can be. I will always miss you and our chats we always would have about music books and life struggles . Rest peacefully brother .
RIP Charlie. You certainly kept us on toes at Catalina Milne Bay Hostel. I always enjoyed our chats on a great range of topics including Beechworth, a special place for me & loved talking to you about the area. Godspeed Charlie.

Love Jedd, Kerrie and Jaxon Murdoch.Rest in Peace Charlie
Forever in my thoughts since our time together in Vietnam even though we lost touch.
Charlie was always empathetic and compassionate yet also had a wicked endearing sense of humour, always bright , cheerful and adventurous and loved being challenged. He was always a willing confidant and is sadly missed.
