Taking care of Blake’s family.

Blake Hann was a lad, a larrikin, a digger and a mate. He was Mel’s dream boy and the hero to his four sons, Frankie (9), Axel (7), Spike (2) and Rocko (8 months).

He died on March 13. He was 35 years old.

His sudden, unexpected and still unexplained death has left his whole family in shock. We are shattered beyond words as we struggle to comprehend how this happened. His boys don’t understand why daddy is never coming home.

Mel and Blake worked hard to provide for their boys but Mel now faces an uncertain future, having to raise her four sons without Blake’s salary - which was their sole income.

Mel has already moved out of their rental home, unable to return to the place her husband tragically died.

She needs a home for the boys. She needs to pay their school fees. She needs to be able to provide for them for many years to come, giving them the life she and Blake always planned for. 

We all have the best memories of Blake making us laugh in his flanno shirt. But he was more than a joker, Blake was a devoted husband and a daddy who adored his boys. He worked so hard to take care of his family.

We can’t bring our Blakey Boy back, but we can do everything we can to take care of his family for him. It’s all that mattered to him.
