Funeral expenses for Preston John ️

On the 15th if April, 2024, Heaven gained another angel. Preston John Weatherall-Grimshaw was born on March 3rd, 2002. Beloved son, grandson, brother, cousin, mate and more to many throughout.

Preston was widely known for his love for footy, music, dancing, and giving anyone a laugh when they needed it. He was comedic at the worst of times, and the best.

In Preston’s short life, he achieved so much. Graduating from St. Mary’s in Toowoomba, going onto University, his passion for football (where we would all remember he would often tell the story of being named after Preston Campbell), but his greatest achievement by far, was his family. Preston will be lived on through his beloved mother Carolyn Weatherall, and younger siblings Dakota and Peter.

Many have various memories of Preston, the good and the bad. But we shall remember him for the man he truly was. Generous, loving, gentle, selfless, devoted, passionate and kind.

In the days leading up to Preston’s passing, he faced the very unfortunate battle of mental health issues, and devastatingly enough, he lost the final battle. Many remember Pret for his resilience, his strength, his bravery, his (sometimes outrageous) amount of courage that he carried within him. And we shall continue to remember those traits that made him the soul that we all loved and cherished.

Please help with any funds to go towards funeral proceedings, and possible living expenses that may arise for his immediate family in these next few months of their grievances. Whether it be $5 or $50, anything helps in such a tragic time.

And please, we all cannot stress enough how important it is to lean on those who love us in times like these. As Preston would say, “sometimes love is all we need”. Please find attached below, any numbers for any support services you may need.

Shine bright Preston, we will look for you in the stars, the sky, this life and the afterlife. Stay Deadly, our boy and we’ll see you in the Dreamtime. ❤️
