Rest in peace to an absolute gentleman and great bloke.
It was a pleasure to experience early life down in Johanna with you.
The world is a darker place without the light you brought to it.
Fly high mate, you’ll forever be missed.
Love always mate
Harry Sinclair and family.
Loved growing up with you by the beach even if it did feel like Jem and I had way too many brothers.
Will definitely miss our Christmas Eve catch-ups. RIP ❤️

Although part of the opposition in business, Liam was always up for a chat.
Always the professional but permanent smile on his face, great bloke and a gentleman.
Will be sorely missed.

My days with you in them were always filled with laughter.
You certainly knew how to have fun and you always brightened everyone’s day with your shenanigans.
One of the funniest moments you and I shared was when you genuinely asked me ‘if there were dinosaurs at the Zoo’.
You were always a good friend to everyone that was lucky enough to meet you and during our days working together you always had the time to help anyone that needed assistance or advice. That’s the kind of human you always were; generous, loving and caring.
This world won’t be the same without you in it to continue all of your old, new and future relationships you created with everyone you met.
You will be very missed Leo.
My sincere condolences to your family! Xx
Our hearts are with Sue, Ron and family, we are so saddened by the tragic loss of dear Leo.
We will always treasure the memories we made growing up, from weekends on the farm to bumping into him on the Lambys dance floor.
He always had time for others and made everyone around him smile. We will miss you Leo.
All our love,
The Ruffins
Sincere condolences to the Harrington family.
Liam was such a good human, always friendly and always had a moment to chat.
Someone that lived life and held his head high.

It had been a minute since we have caught up, but you were always someone who left a lasting impression on everyone who met you.
Truly one of the finest people I’ve crossed paths with, an absolute gentleman and generous to a fault.
Condolences to your family at this tough time
Liam
Since meeting at uni so many years ago, I have considered you one of my closest friends.
We had some fantastic times and adventures together over the years that I will never forget.
You were great fun to be with, and a genuinely good person, always so positive and encouraging.
Simply being with Liam, gave you a pleasant feeling, it’s hard to put it into words. But he really listened, was so sincere and made you feel very comfortable. And it didn’t matter what you would be doing, if it was with Liam it would be memorable. That was him, there weren’t any bad times, could’ve been doing anything, he would make the best of it for the people he was with. And so many stories would come from it. And it’s why I think he made so many good friends over the years.
Wherever you went with Liam, he would know someone, and know them well, which is the difference.
He will never be forgotten.
Liam was such a truely good, genuine person, and it’s such a tragic loss.
When in the bay, or thinking of dirty old unit 8, or having a quiet stubbie, I’ll be thinking of you.
Thankyou for the time shared.
Miss you forever mate.
Sending love to Jem, Tim, Ron and Sue and families.

Words at this point, do not ease the grief and pain of such a great loss of Liam.
We are sending our sympathy and thoughts to you Sue, Ron and family.
Our condolences are with you all.
Our condolences to all of the Harrington family on the passing of Liam.
We consider ourselves very lucky to have been able to get to know Liam through Cricket and life in Apollo Bay.
He was always wonderfully kind and friendly, ever keen to tell us about what his family are up to.
He had a rare spark, a zest for life and so much love in his heart.
Our love and thoughts are with all of the Harrington family at this deeply sad time.
With love from Annabel, Martin, Katie, Eleanor and James
Liam / Harro
You were so easy to love, but so hard to lose!
You were always so happy, fun, genuine and kind!
Thank you for always making us smile, but most of all for just being you!
We will talk about you often, and never forget the mark you left on our family
Our hearts are broken, a great mate taken way too soon!
Party hard, shine bright and keep the beers cold for when we meet again x
So many priceless memories over the years Hazza!
There is really only one Hazza.
You are so kind-hearted and gentle and we were so lucky to have crossed paths with you.
We are working on stealing a Canoe in your honour!

I’ll miss our chats and laughs together mate, you were truly one of a kind.

Rest easy

All our love and condolences.

Roz and I feel very privileged to have had a chat and a few beers with Liam at the footy just days before this tragic accident.
During the last quarter and in typical Liam fashion, he gave me his last can of beer. With a big grin.
Our thoughts now are with our good friends – the Harringtons. Roz & Mark O’Loughlin.
Very much loved nephew of Jill and cousin to Kelly, Shane, Sean and Cassie, special uncle to Violet.
We miss you so much already Leo, we’ll raise a glass of special Christmas brandy in your honour.
Our dear Leo, I could never thank you enough for how fun you made my childhood.
I’ll always cherish our time together over all these years.
It breaks my heart that Violet won’t get to grow up with you.
Cassie and I will do our best to honour your adventurous and loving nature with her.
We love you so much.
It was a pleasure to work with you over the past 12 months or so, your constant friendliness and always teaching things.
We will miss you mate, never forgotten.
Brett and Sonia

There was never a dull day on tour with Liam.
He was the life of the party and made us all laugh throughout our time together in Europe.
He will be sadly missed, but we will all remember the memories we shared with him.
Sending strength and lots of hugs to his family and friends.
Lots of love from the Europe Contiki Family xxx
