It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Alan Walsh in Australia, a much-loved family member, loyal friend and neighbour.

Alan passed away suddenly while at work which has come as a huge shock to everyone.

A go-fund me page has been set up by his work mates in Australia to help pay for repatriation costs. The funds from the Australian page will be split in 3. 2/3 will be donated to 2 charities who are assisting with Alan’s repatriation and the remaining 1/3 will be given to Alan’s family.

Alan’s family are experiencing an unimaginably difficult period whilst they wait for news on the repatriation of Alan. We have created this go fund me page solely for Alan’s family to assist them in their time of need.

All funds raised through this page will go directly to the family to help make things a little bit easier for them during this incredibly tough time. There will be many unexpected costs for the family as they navigate their loss and grief.

All donations, whether big or small, are greatly appreciated. Our heartfelt sympathies go to Alan’s family and his many friends at this extremely difficult time. He is a huge loss to so many, May God give you strength and courage.
