Neville Selleck has passed away.

Neville was a talented woodworker whose work is well known around Australia. His encouragement and simple but practical explanations of seemingly difficult methods have benefited many woodworkers.

Details of his funeral are in the attachement.

Sorry to hear the news.
I was aware of some of his work from St Francis Catholic Church (http://www.stfrancismelbourne.org/photo-gallery/furnishings/liturgical-furnishings.htm) in Melbourne.
A highly talented Craftsmen that I have no doubt will be sorely missed.
Do you know how old he was?

I think he was in his fifties but at heart he was much younger.

He had a wonderful attitude to life in general and was always keen to share ideas and techniques.

I'm sure I have read about him in AWR some times.

Shame to lose a good one.

I suspect his family is young and sympathies to them - it is all good if we can grow old together.

You can also see the heart of a man with the donations he will recieve going to a worthy cause - man's best friend.

There were a few articles featuring Neville and his work in AWR.
