Statement on the Death of Bruce Goodluck

I was very sad to learn of the death of Bruce Goodluck.

Bruce gave his life to public service, serving at all three levels of government.

Bruce Goodluck will be remembered for his joviality and sense of humour, most memorably perhaps for taking up a dare to walk into the House of Representatives Chamber dressed as a chicken.

Bruce combined his good humour with a serious and effective advocacy for his community and his state. He was a small business owner and was President of the Australian Automobile Chamber of Commerce.

Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife, Cynthia, and his five daughters, his family and many friends.
