The Tumut and Adelong Times 7 Aug 1945
OBITUARY MR. MAC. LUFF Gundagai and district people were grieved and shocked to learn on Wednesday morning last, of the sudden death of Mr. Mac. Luff, of Gobarralong. The deceased was in Gundagai staying with his sister, Mrs. M. E. Owen, so as to be near his wife, who is a patient in the Gundagai District Hospital. On Tuesday he was apparently in good health and retired for the night in good spirits. Early next morning, hearing noises coming from his bedroom, Mrs. Owen rushed in to find her brother breathing his last. A jovial and extremely popular man was the deceased. He had a cheery smile for every one and had he not the time for a yarn his hand would always go out in friendly greeting. A native of the district, the deceased had spent his whole life following pastoral pursuits, owning a valuable Gobarralong property. He will be greatly missed at that centre, where he was in everything and supported all things sponsored by the villagers. Besides his widow he leaves a family of four, Nellie (Mrs. Fred. Rumble, Muttama), Joan (Mrs. Stan. Williams, Sydney), Miss Una Luff (Gobarralong) and Mr. Keith Luff (Gobarralong). The surviving members of the Luff family are Mrs. M. E. Owen (Gundagai), Mrs. Jim Carberry (Nangus), Mrs. Ed. Carberry (Sydney), Messrs. Bill, Tom and Bert Luff, all of Gobarralong. |
