Bob was a man who loved his game fishing and he was good at it. A favourite fishing recollection seems appropriate. The 2003 Tollgates Tournament (Batemans Bay) saw Bob and his ‘Elusive’ crew (Larry Barnes, Peter Kastelein, Hayden Neal and myself) frustrated after the first two days that having tagged a few fish we were still out of the running in our preferred Tag and Release category. A couple of other boats had really got among them. We agreed to we spend the final (third) day trying to encourage a marlin that might earn us the Biggest Game Fish trophy. The morning spent fishing in the local Bay waters proved fruitless so we half threw-in-the-towel and headed north back home to Ulladulla. Of course as game boats do, we continued dragging a pattern of lures. We were off Brush Island when Bob twigged that we were in particularly good water temperature and he decided to work in this warm water for a while. What a good call that proved to be. A big blue marlin hooked up and we got it into the boat. We were then in a quandary. It was a trophy fish, but we were a lot closer by then to Ulladulla than to Batemans Bay where the fish needed be weighed-in. How were we going to get the fish back to the weigh station before the tournament closing time? Another good Bob Muir call. Power home to Ulladulla; unload the fish onto a trailer; and drive it back to the Bay. This we did. The reaction of many motorists on the Princes Highway to a box trailer with a monster marlin hanging out of it might be imagined. What might also be imagined was the reaction from other tournament crews to this fish being backed up to the weigh station in a trailer only minutes before the tournament closed. Despite the sideways glances of some other competitors, unconventional practice or not, our fish was accepted as a legitimate entry, and at 218 kg it took the trophy. Bob will get another laugh out of this. Thanks Larry Barnes for helping me with this. Brian Koorey

There is a possibility that Ross saw Service in the Military – although I am unable to find corroborating evidence.

Condolences to Roy’s wife, Betty, and their six daughters – Ellen, Alison, Jean, Susan, Megan and Roslyn.

Roy was a bloody lovely bloke and I remember his fondly as one of my Sergeants at Wollongong GDs back in the early 1980s.

Sergeant Roy McIntyre has left us

My Dad Royston John McIntyre left us yesterday afternoon at 5:30pm.
Mum Betty and all his six daughters Ellen, Alison, Jean, Susan, Megan and Roslyn were with him, and his son-in-law Malcolm.
We had told him Lell was coming home from overseas and Susan would arrive yesterday morning from Gove. He smiled and said “All our daughters will be with us”. He waited for that.
We watched him and held him as he took his last breath, and we saw the colour drain from his face. It was momentary and very peaceful.
We sat with him for a few hours, drank champagne and shared our most vivid memories of him. Together we cried and laughed – the McIntyre way – and enjoyed being a family with him once again.
We observed as the palliative care nurse examined and declared him ( deceased ) then the funeral home people wrapped him up and solemnly took him away.
I like to believe he’s now with his mum Sadie, his beloved sister Heather, his two sons-in-law John Nash and John Tomashek and all his friends who have gone before him. At 91 he was the last one.
He asked for a Police funeral, to be cremated and his ashes spread from the point beyond the Shellharbour boat ramp where the surfers go. A favourite fishing spot.
We don’t have a date yet for the funeral because it depends on the police.
If you wish to attend Dad’s funeral, please personal message or phone one of us for the details.
Rest now peacefully our beautiful Dad – everybody’s favourite. We will always adore you.

Assault on Collector policeman alleged

GOULBURN, Tuesday. — A Queanbeyan man was committed in Goulburn this morning for trial on a charge of having assaulted a policeman.

James Pantos, 26, was charged with having assaulted Constable Roy McIntyre at Collector on May 29 this year.

Mr J. Mullins, for Pantos, said evidence by three witnesses and by Const. McIntyre was “confusing and conflicting”.

Mr R. J. Wingett, SM. said, however, that a prima facie case had been established.

Mr Wingett also committed Roger Vern Hancock, of Queanbeyan, on a charge of having obstructed the law.

Mr B. Gallen, for Hancock, said he had no part in the alleged assault on Const. McIntyre.

Mr Wingett committed him on the charge of having aided the alleged attackers to escape.

He set the date for the trial on both men for September 12 and allowed $200 bail for each man.

The embezzler who duped a community

A solicitor has gone to his grave amid revelations that he fleeced his family, friends and clients of more than $5million to fund a secret double life.

Edmund Fredericks was seen as a pillar of the community until the Law Society discovered the investment funds he had been borrowing were supporting alcohol and gambling addictions.

Law Society receiver Jean Sayer confirmed that since being appointed to Fredericks’s Lidcombe-based practice in August last year, she had become aware of 70 people who had collectively lost $5million – and possibly more.

“The borrowing occurred over several years, although it got much worse over the past 18 months,” Mrs Sayer said.

“Some of the victims were Fredericks’s school friends, others knew him through church, through family or through word of mouth. Some were clients of his law firm but many were actually from his own background: Ukrainian migrants who, in speaking the same language, regarded him as a role model.”

Mrs Sayer warned that while the Law Society possessed a solicitors’ fidelity fund, many victims could end up penniless because Fredericks convinced them to hand over cash.

“A large percentage of the missing millions was delivered in cash and there are many people who, in trusting him, walked away with little to no documentation,” she said.

Fredericks’s web of deceit has shattered countless lives including that of Mark Styles, who is wheelchair-bound after breaking his neck 13 years ago.

Mr Styles, 41, said: “I gave Fredericks $85,000 of my compensation payout to purchase me a farm in the country.

He told me he had located the perfect place near Tamworth. I now know that was a lie to extract more cash from me. I’m now forced to live at my parents’ house, in which I’ve effectively been a prisoner since the accident.”

Fredericks was born in Germany shortly after World War II and moved to Australia with his family when he was young.

He opened Eddie Fredericks & Co in Lidcombe in the early 1970s. During the next 30 years he established a loyal client base and became a popular Catholic Church figure, using his knowledge of law to help hundreds of migrants settle in.

By the time he branched out into investment management five years ago, he controlled the trust of an entire community.

Offering between 12 and 30 per cent interest, he had no shortage of takers.

But in August last year, one of his clients contacted the Law Society, saying a $20,000 investment loan hadn’t been repaid. Two days later, Fredericks’s law certificate was suspended and a receiver was appointed.

In September last year he sold his Sandringham waterfront mansion for $2.6 million, but friends say he continued to drink and gamble heavily.

On February 20, he died of a heart attack, aged 56.

On Wednesday, angry creditors learned of his unadvertised funeral at Rookwood Cemetery.

Retired NSW police officer Ken Sawkins, who lost $26,500, was one silent protester who mingled with mourners.

“I’ve been chasing him since last July,” he said. “Fortunately for him, this was the closest I got.”

Maryse Kutschukian was also present after being forced to take her mother out of an old people’s home. “He stole $12,500 from me and the worst thing was that he knew about my plight,” she said.

Fredericks’s former lawyer Greg Walsh said his client had suffered “a lonely, shameful death”.
