Dinner at the local and a beer with mates. Brian's Wish was to have a parmy with his friends at the Labrador Tigers AFL Sports Club.  

A regular every Friday night, the club was a weekly treat for Brian, with familiar faces, raffles and plenty of stories to keep him coming back. This wish was no different.  

It was an afternoon and evening filled with friends, family, stories and moments that will be remembered.  

As the wish came to a close, something incredible happened. Brian was on his way to the wish ambulance, and, as he was escorted, the entire club stood up and applauded him – like a guard of honour. It was an emotional moment for Brian, and one that touched everyone there.  

A beautiful tribute to a much-loved man.

Thank you to our wonderful wish team Sue, Brett and Jack for fulfilling this last wish and Ange Costes Photography for creating memories forever for Brian and his loved ones.
