Thanks Edgar

Even though Edgar had several decades of experience, he always had a smile and time of day for everyone around him.

We will miss his smile.

Farewell Edgar- a job well done here

Many will remember him for his love of theatre on both sides of the equator here on earth. Now he has crossed over another equator. Farewell Edgar

Farewell Edgar

Such sad news. He was always so kind to me when I arrived in Perth to study at WAPPA. One very fond memory was sitting in his packed lounge room watching the first episode of BRIDESHEAD REVISTED and us all sitting their in stunned silence at the glory of it. He was an actor of fine capability and it was a pleasure to know him and work with him. He was also a charming host and great cook. A fine gentleman.
