 You have listed Kevin Kelly RAAF as a possible death.  It isn't the RAAF fellow.  Coincidentally I was talking to him today.

Dad, you had to leave us,
Long before you asked to go,
And on the surface it would appear,
You left with nought to show.
But, of course, we all knew better,
We loved a man so rare,
And if lifes lessons learnt
were currency,
Dad, you died a millionaire.
Cause you taught us how to love
and live,
And how well the two can mix,
You showed us theres not
a problem found,
That a rum or two cant fix!
Now only the good die young
they say,
A cliche tired but true,
But the great stay in our hearts
forever,
Thats a promise from us to you.
And yes you were a dreamer,
An optimist to the end,
Cause all the while in hospital,
You were "Comin home and
on the mend".
But after years of dreaming,
You found the boat youd
never buy,
And as you sail away to chase
the tides,
Forgive us if we cry.
Cause well miss our Father,
Well miss our Pop,
And the good times we all had,
But to put it how youd like it said,
Well simply miss our Dad.
