The Riversdale Rugby Football Club members past and present wish to acknowledge our life member’s significant contribution to the organisation.

For many years Tom gave time and unwavering loyalty as senior team manager and as a club member. His steady dedication and warmth touched many players and supporters.

Rugby is a game built on respect, hard work, and mateship, and Tom lived every one of those values.
Our club and its members offer our condolences and sympathy to Pam and family.

Rest in peace Tom.
