  7. To Bonnie and family,
    Our memories of Spike are numerous and far too many to put down in one sentence, but what we do know is that we will miss him every day at Cooinda, with his cheeky one liners and his love of a good chat, and his ability to make every new resident who came to cooinda feel included and welcomed. Most of all we will miss Spike at our Footy Tipping group and his and Bonnie’s very competitive weekly tipping scores. He will go into our very reverent Hall of Fame at Cooinda. RIP
