Craig O’REILLY

17.9.1963 – 20.4.2024
Suddenly you were taken
We could not say goodbye
Now we only have memories
That will never die.

It breaks our heart to announce the passing of Craig, more affectionately known as “Hooka”. A loving husband to Alison and devoted & supportive father to Jamie and Aaron.
A life well lived, taken too early. We shall miss you. 💕

Hooka, my awesome brother, taken from us way to soon. We will miss your banter and dry humour – you will never by forgotten. Love Jen, Nathan and Shae
Our heartfelt sympathy on your loss Ali, Jamie and Aaron. Love and fond memories Catherine, Tyrone and George.
Loved brother-in-law of Dianne & Rob, Uncle of Catherine, Andrew, Lachlan and Kirstie.
Gone suddenly, no time to say goodbye. RIP

It is with great sadness we are feeling the loss of our dear son-in-law Craig. Love to Alison, Jamie and Aaron. Taken too early. Stan and Lynette.

In lieu of flowers, and if you would like to, donations can be made to the Royal Melbourne Hospital Intensive Care Unit.
