    NO! I can't believe it.

    Trevor, all the meandering, scintillating, giggle-inducing conversations we were yet to have.

    You were even going to be a must-do visit when we eventually get to Tassie - on our honeymoon no less!

    You leave a big hole in the lives of many.


    From your learned friend, the professor


    To Tayne, I know you and I didn't meet but your Dad made life a hoot for many of us and we are thankful that we had some precious time with him. Our most heart-heavy condolences go to you.

    Not much I can add to this tribute. I'm deeply shocked. How sad.
    I too met Trev in 2014 in Gerildery and he came to visit me twice here in Bendigo. I corresponded with him often and spoke on the phone a few times.
    Lola wrapped up how he took the hand that was dealt him and used it to his advantage in imagining and learning things most of us can't - and made him an outstanding human being.
    Whoever has contact with Tayne, please pass on all the condolences assembled here. He needs to know how many lives his dad has touched. He has his own hand of unusual cards to play....
    Cheers,
    Joe

    RIP Trev. You will be missed.
    On top of all that has been said, I loved how you just got stuck into what you were doing.
    No procrastinating, no over thinking and no problem if you had to redo it and make it even better.
    Something I can definitely learn from.

    I also loved how you made the most of what you had.
    Both materially and as a person.
    No excuses.
    I'm sure I'm not alone in taking something away from that.

    I never met Trev but enjoyed seeing his work. May he rest in peace.

    Along with Trev's amazing model building skills he was also a bit of a world expert on Siegley Planes.
    He had amassed a beautiful collection of planes and built a wonderful display box.

    Here are some of my favourite threads to remind us of his achievements:

    It has been a little while since I was on the forum and just found this thread.
    I am shocked by this news I will miss his banter in the threads that he participate in. As others have mentioned it was easy to like Trevor when you met him in person.

    My condolences to his family.

    I think Trevor would have loved this.

    I've just been looking at the last few posts that have gone up. Trev was a member since 2013!! and...he posted 2226 times!!! No wonder we will miss his input.
    In my own mind I had assumed he had been a member for a lot longer

    He may be gone, but he will be lingering on for a long time yet when we go over his posts.
    Just do it!

    Kind regards Rod

    Also remember that Trevor was on the Collectors program on the ABC. Search for it to remember our mate.

    Was just browsing the forum and came across this very sad news, cant believe it.

    I was not one of the lucky ones who met him in person and only knew Trev through this forum, but his Indian build was always my first port of call when logging on to check his progress on this amazing creation.

    Condolences to his family and his many friends, he will be missed.

    Steven.

    I was in town the other day getting bread at the local Bakers Delight and as I started back up the street I saw a couple blokes with leathers enjoying a coffee.
    I looked across to the spare chair to see a new Indian Jacket draped over it and then to the street to see a new Indian Motorbike.
    I commented "nice bike" and the owner was pleased to receive the complement.
    I then asked if like to see a restored 1920's bike to which he and his mate eagerly said YES.
    I showed them Trevor's bike and the were agog at the detail and finish,
    BUT the jaw drop came when I showed them this photo!!

    They could believe it was a 2/3's model....
    WELL DONE TREVOR!!

    Nice Crowie. I was just showing some pictures of the Indian this last week too.

    In Jerilderie this weekend. Miss having him around. He was a part of my morning ritual
