Oh my dear Wombles, where do I even begin. I’ve known you for most of my life, we’ve grown up together. Through school to now, you have always been that smiley, funny, kindhearted beautiful soul that always had time for anyone. Even my daughter loved your kind heart, she loved seeing you at the Townsend shop, telling stories of our school years. Love you to the moon and back my Wombles. Yeeeeeeew!

Wow Nathon, where do I start.
I will always remember you smiling and your cheerful laugh. I will always remember the nights we spent crabbing out at the Sandon, the very first night I met you, to the day we moved in together. We had so many fun times and I think about them always. I love you with all of my heart and I can't believe I now have to say goodbye. I hope you are enjoying your beers and the waves up there. Until we meet again, keep partying. Love you xx and so does Dakota!!! YE

Unfortunately I can’t get out of work to make it along, wish I could have joined in the paddle out… Wombat will be smiling down on all the people who loved him, know how much you were loved Wombat and make sure you’re sitting in the middle of that ring out there. Have a great day celebrating the life of a yamba legend ❤️❤️❤️

Wombat was always the highlight of my early morning pop ins to Spar before to my daily surf check. He would always greet me with a huge smile, almost always what I’d call the “Wombat hug” essentially a bear hug but Wombat style hahah. He was always huge highlight to my mornings in and out of the surf! I’ll miss you forever and I’ll miss seeing you in the lineup shouting “YEWWW” to anyone who paddled for a wave, I hope you get some endless barrels up there legend ❤️🪽
