Tributes
  1. Dimitri,
    We always knew you were a bit of a crazy cat when Andrew,Chris and I took you to Torquay Beach all those years ago. You were the only one doing cartwheels on the sand!
    But a crazy cat displaying warmth, kindness and generosity of spirit, and the teller of long-winded jokes!
    A perfectionist at his craft and a loving husband, father and friend.
    Will miss your enveloping hugs and your wicked grin!
    Love you, my dear brother- in – law. Gin.❤️❤️

  3. Dear Dad and Grandpa,

    You were truly one of a kind. Like you always said, there is no-one else on this planet like you (and that you probably came from Mars!)

    The biggest hearted man and so full of love, always ready to help someone in need.

    You taught me so much. You gave me my inquisitive nature and to determine how things work and can be fixed. You showed me how to be a fun loving father to my children, and to never stop being a big kid.

    Gone too soon. Before you could re-tell all your crazy stories to Will and teach him how to swear in Greek.

    You’re smothering cuddles and kisses will be missed forever.

    Love from Simon, Kelly, Will and Isabelle (your koukla)

    I’m so sorry for your loss my deepest condolences.
    For me, Dimitri was the original wild man, so full of life and spirit. He seemed to enjoy life a bit more than everyone else. I will never forget his cheeky smile and kind eyes. He made me laugh so much and bought everyone around him so much joy.

  9. To the best Dad and Grandpa,

    Finding the right words is impossible. Taken from us so suddenly seems so unfair.

    You were our beacon, our guide, our ‘Mr Fix It’, our one and only. So much life, energy, love and so much to teach us. Spending hours with the boys playing games, telling jokes, coming away with us on footy trips, school pickups and sports events. The boys fighting over which spot they wanted on the couch so they could fall asleep on you watching tv.

    Our hearts are breaking. We take some comfort in knowing how much you loved us, and you knew how much we loved you. So many kisses and cuddles..

    We will miss you forever and carry you in our thoughts and words always.

    Reunited with Mum/Grandma

    Mezza xx
    Jeno, Lucas and Joshua Jennings 💗
