To the best Pa a granddaughter could ask for, Thankyou for being the most caring, down to earth person anyone could ever have met. You truely had the most beautiful soul, I think anyone could agree with that one. You would be absolutely stoked to be up there with Nan to listen to her loud laugh again, we all knew how much you loved her. You will both be dearly missed. All the memories we’ve made with you will be cherished in our hearts forever.
I love you pa xx

My amazing Pa, seeing your name written on this site has broken my heart even more. 43 years of having you in my life, and now no more. Thank you for all the memories you gave me, from photo shoots to the woodwork toys you made me.. Thank you for being the King of our family who demonstrated a personality of loyalty, forgiveness, love, integrity, hard working, commitment, laughter, gratefulness & Honestly. All the things Amazing Pa’s are made of. I love you Pa & the dedication of time you gave me always. Love Sh*tstick xx

Rest In Peace Mr.Godden. I didn’t meet you, but I feel I know you from your wonderful family posts.
💐+ 💐

I love you, pa. You will be greatly missed by everyone. You were the best pa ever. I have so many great memories of you. Always smiling, always happy. Such a large presence in the room, a true family many always making sure everyone was looked after. I don’t think I ever heard you raise your voice or say a mean thing about anyone. My favourite memories will always be cleaning up the saw dust in your shed, while you worked away on your latest project. You always made it feel like it was the most important job of all and how great we were to be trusted to do such an important job. Also the smile on your face when you held my boy for the 1st time. The pink wooden cat you made me 25-30 years ago still sits displayed on a shelf and I still brag about how you made it and about the fun times sweeping up the saw dust with you.
R.l.P love Kylie and Travis xxx

I love you pa and so sad that your gone. Breaks my heart aria won’t get to meet you. When she is old enough I will give her the little doll cradle that you made me and tell her stories about the best pa in the world. Thank you for being you and raising my dad so he could be the best dad and poppy to all our kids. We miss and love you terribly. Hope you are back with Nana looking down on our amazing family that wouldn’t be possible without the two of you.

Hey pa
May your spirit be reunited with nan and live on in peace
You have made an amazing family blood line you will always be remembered as the kindest and most caring godden I and my family ever knew I remember back in the day when any of us grandkids would come visit you would always stop what you were doing and spend time with us and do what it took to make us happy
Love you Pa R.I.P

To my beautiful Pa, the big friendly giant. You were such a funny man, your love for your family was felt through all of us.. your face would light up every time your great grandkids walked into the room. Your smile always lit up the room.. your mumbling under your breath when nana was to loud never went unnoticed lol
The woodwork you made was some of my fav toys in the world, micks big truck, the big ride on elephant, the wooden toys.. there’s so many things to remember you by! We will miss you so much! Pls give nana a big kiss and hug from us. You’ll be dearly missed RIP you beautiful soul we call pa ❤️❤️❤️

Pa, you truly were amazing and will be greatly missed. My girls love you just like we all do. I was looking back through my photos and I just loved the big smile you had on your face holding my girls as babies ❤️ So many great memories we will cherish forever. You will always have a special place in our hearts.
We love you Pa, RIP

To our Pa, you will be missed but leave us with so many memories of a strong, loving and supporting man. Mostly I will cherish the years growing up in Mildura with you around to teach me a heap of things that gave me the confidence to believe in myself, maintain a bit of mischievous cheek into my adulthood and strive to be successful… you called me ‘a little legend’ so much I came to believe it and walk tall because of it… that’s had both good and bad results haha.
You even introduced me to the internet when you set up your home computer & showed me the ropes – always learning & teaching – and hey looks like ‘the internet’ has really kicked off since then ;-).

Rest in Peace Pa… say hi to Nana xo
Love always
Robbie, Jacqui, Maddie & Hayley

To Dear Cliff.
As a husband, a father & a friend you were always a very loving, kind & giving person. Always the calm voice of reason, always the quiet, but knowing soul in the background. I thankyou for allowing me to be a small part of your family, many many years ago.
As you have come to the end of a very full life, you have also been a loving Pa & Great Pa to many.
Your legacy will live on in your family and friends that you have had in your life.
Rest in piece Cliff. You’ve earned a rest. Congratulations on reaching 90.
Luv Elaine xoxox 💖

Today’s the day we say goodbye, and I can only reflect on the massive impact you’ve had on my life. I didn’t just look up to you as a Pa, but as a man. You were always kind and patient, no matter the troubles or disruptions you faced.

I’m so glad we got a lot of quality time together in recent years, I wouldn’t trade those afternoons watching The Chase together for anything.

Thanks for everything.

I love you pa and so sad that your gone. Breaks my heart aria won’t get to meet you. When she is old enough I will give her the little doll cradle that you made me and tell her stories about the best pa in the world. Thank you for being you and raising my dad so he could be the best dad and poppy to all our kids. We miss and love you terribley. Hope you are back with Nana looking down on our amazing family that wouldn’t be possible without the two of you.
