Vale': Warren John Halliday (WarrenZ)

[Lurch]

It is with great sadness that I pass on this news about WarrenZ.
I only just sent out an email last night to a few people advising of his condition, when I received an email this morning from his lovely wife Kay advising that Warren passed away on Friday 18th September in a Palliative Care unit in Broadmedows, Melbourne.
He was surrounded buy his family. He was 58.

Warren was diagnosed with Advanced Melanoma 10 weeks ago & the speed at which it took hold was frightening...
There will be a funereal in Adelaide, & a memorial service in Melbourne in the coming weeks.

May you Rest In Peace.

Yes shocking news. Sad to see such a lovely gentle man go in such a way. My condolences to Kay and the rest of the family. I think maybe we should name the Bi-annual Thredbo Trip after Warren since he and Kay had such a great time only last February. RIP big fella.

I must say I'm very sad to hear this news. Warren was 1 of the first guys to show up at our first meeting in 2004 in his Silver 240z. Always friendly and enthusiastic.

Here are some shots of his Z at the first ever meet.

very sad news - i know there's alot more to life, but as a plus atleast he got to get his zed back on the road

[matt drago]

Absolutely shocked and dumbfounded.  I write this with tears in my eyes.  He will be missed.

I'm sorry to everyone that has received this information so suddenly.
I found out he was undergoing treatment when I caught up with him & Kay at the John Mott sprint in July.
At the time I did not feel obliged too make his illness more public, though in later weeks I should have been more vigilant in staying in contact with them.

For anyone wishing to send a personal email of condolences to Kay, I have her email address.
Feel free to PM me for it.

May he rest in peace for eternity.
I second a motion for the Thredbo run to be named after him and would like to volunteer some money towards some thing special for Kay from all of us.

Rest in peace.

A Zed brother has been lost.
