Brumby Jack, Luke and Charlie Fairfield-Smith at a Brumbies game.
Harden man Luke Cotter sadly passed away on Sunday night after battling illness for much of his life.
Kay Grovenor provided around the clock care for Luke after his mother passed away from severe headaches, collapse and a heart condition when he was 4 years of age.
Well known in the district Luke was a lover of everything sport and he set himself goals as a means of keeping himself vital. He loved watching Cricket, Rugby Union, Rugby League and Soccer. Luke travelled to many Brumbies matches and was described as one of their biggest fans.
The club came out today with a story about Luke detailing his love for the team.
Luke was a favourite of the players and was surprised when Stasi and Kay took him to Brumbies training on his 30th birthday in July this year, where he was presented with a jersey by the players as a token of their appreciation and support. Luke was able to attend the Wallabies v New Zealand match on Saturday before he passed away.
Kay and her family should be proud of the care they provided Luke over his life time. Our condolences to the family.
