Vale; Brian “Grumpy” Machen

To those of us from “the old Farts” Friday coffee mornings, who knew Brian “Grumpy” Machen, we record our condolences to his wife Marilyn and family on the passing of Brian on 12 May 2024, after a very short illness.

Brian and Marilyn had moved to Cairns from NZ only a couple of years ago and were members of the All American Club Inc. Brian was involved with cars all his life in work and play and will be sorely missed. Brian owned a 1961 F100, dark blue, with “Grumpy” painted on the doors. Geoff Pellert
