   Benjamin Brian O'Loughlin  (Locky, DJ, Benno)

Born:  PORT PIRIE,  SA  05/03/1976            Passed Away: ADELAIDE SA  20/12/2007

 

Ben brought tremendous love and life, to the lives of everyone he touched.  He enjoyed watching all sports and played cricket, football, grid iron and golf.   A loud and proud supporter of:  Australia;  Port Pirie;  The Port Adelaide Power; Port Adelaide Magpies; Port Pirie Bull Dogs Football Club;  Coopers Pale Ale; The Red Hot Chilli Peppers; JJJ, stubby holders; hats; stickers; #18; Beastie Boys; Jim Beam; Ford and a firm Dick Johnson Racing man. 

 

Ben was the life of any party, he always dreamt of being a comedian, or an actor and having twins.  He looked forward to the: Big Day Out; Australia Day; X-mas eve at the Exeter Hotel; Clipsal followed by the Crown and Anchor;  Fringe and any event in Adelaide which involved a big party - like a four year old at x-mas. He lived everywhere, loved everyone, helped anyone and tried to do everything.  His life was as full and robust as he was.  Who ate all the pies??  Ben always said he was 'bloody huge' and for that reason he became the 'man crane' (a  furniture moving machine) for  many friends and relatives.  Ben tried numerous occupations before finally obtaining his truck licence (HR) and finding a career that he loved and was great at! 

 

Ben was a loved and loving partner, brother, son, uncle, nephew, cousin and friend.  He was tremendously proud of his family, friends and loved ones (so much so, that he had his surname tattooed across his back).  Ben loved passionately and with all his heart, sadly however, his heart did not share his strength and staminar. 

 

He lived for the moment and therefore, he lived.  He is loved by all of us who remain.  We gather the strength to continue from his memory and do so, in honor of him. Ben was taken far to soon and we all continue to grieve his loss - everyday. 

 

FOREVER YOUNG AND FOREVER LOVED

Happy 7th 'real' Anniversary baby

Britt Wilson Apr 24, 2009

Well it is now officially the 25th April 2009 - ANZAC day, what would be / is our 7th anniversary. This time 7 years ago you found me in Heaven with brette and tickles and swore you would follow me anywhere! I continue to hold you to that. That shark couldnt come as he didnt want everyone to know the cant dance, Plus he has no taste in music lol! I am soooooooooooo glad you came into town for my brithday that night baby. You rock my world. Once you put that bloody huge and absolutely stunning arm around me that was it, I never wanted to let you go. You were just so god damn sweet and charming when you chose to be baby, mmm you absolutely touched my heart forever. You will always be my baby, my rock, my angel, the love of my life and i miss you every second of every day. Everything thats happened since has been a breeze in comparison to losing you. You made me strong in so many ways.

My heart positively aches baby. My 2nd anniversary without you telling me to wake up for the dawn service.... i even miss that and who'd thunk it? At the time I absolutely cursed you backward for making me get up any day let alone at 6am but now I would give anything to have you back here annoying and charming me silly. Now with all the love in my heart im sleeping til at least twelve today baby but will be wishing you were here to wake me for the dawn service. I just miss you so much every second baby. Happy anniversary benjamima my price charming. I told you i'd love you forever and i meant it.

Hope your looking after nana w, grandpa and my ever growing crew up there and met nana b with that huge roast lamb you promised her. I hope she is soaring like a dove now and you are giving her some comfort. She really liked you baby and She was soooo wonderful to me, so look after her please. ALso jack and tickles plus grandad and catherine and louie (who's being recorded in the Port Bull Dogs hall of fame 1.5.09)!

Also Robbie and the boys won the GF for Rose Park woo hoo!!! Go the parkers. Watched some wwf with weeds and alex which was fun. Hope you love the house and my teeth!!! spewin you aren't here to see them... How about this retainer?? Ka Kaw! SO much has happened in the time ive had them on baby. So much loss. It was quite sad. So il just smile to the heavens so you can all catch a glimpse. I know there are so many others dealing with tremendous loss and that the glory of love is to let my poor heart break a little.... but geeezz louise... Definately harshed my mellow baby. I take comfort knowing that We shared moments that will last til the end and that when the world is through with us, we'll have each others arms. I lost my love and my best friend the day you went away but know that there must have been an angel with a smile on her face when she thought up that I should be with you. You are precious, angelique and absolutely stunning. I love you so much benj. Happy 7th anniversary my one true love. Forever your princess xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx mwah xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
