Amazingly I didn't cry though I thought I would!

The news here hasn't reported it but it was confirmed yesterday that Steve Irwin's funneral was held on Saturday as speculated. It was a "candlit" type funneral around a campfire on the grounds of Aussie Zoo as Steve Irwin would have wanted. Family and close friends were in attendance. Apparently permission was also been obtained for him to be buried on the grounds though I haven't read anything that confirms this part.

I'm glad his family and friends had the chance to have the private funneral without the public or media getting in on it. The public service is meant to be next week.

I think I also heard confirmation that Peter Brock will be having a state funneral.]]> Tue, 12 Sep 2006 06:40:49 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=71220&title=steve-irwin-dead#71220 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=71192&title=steve-irwin-dead#71192 Author: baalamb

I don't think the Pulp Sport take off was disrespectful coz it wasn't at all close to the Crocodile Hunter even though it was meant to be him. They did have a small tribute at the start of the show as well.

Did anyone else see 60 Minutes tonight? I just cried when they had Steve Irwin's piece on. Especially when they had clips with his kids and wife in them. Gosh, I couldn't imagine Ashlee growing up without her dad.]]> Mon, 11 Sep 2006 20:03:34 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=71192&title=steve-irwin-dead#71192 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=71097&title=steve-irwin-dead#71097 Author: Paws

I hope it is never released either. Even as a journalist I still think SOME things are sacred...

John Howard WOULD want a state funeral - Steve Irwin must have been one of the only Aussies who said nice things about him to the press. The rest of them were busy wondering why the heck they voted for him...

Maya used to watch the Crocodile HUnter Diaries with Willie on a Sat or Sun afternoon, I got a surprise when she recognised him on the front page of the paper yesterday and said "thats the crocodile man".]]> Wed, 06 Sep 2006 11:40:19 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70457&title=steve-irwin-dead#70457 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70427&title=steve-irwin-dead#70427 Author: emeldee

At least it's not in the hands of the paparazzi/women's mags. Since his producer is a mate and his wife will have control of the footage once it is returned from the police, there is a good show it will never be released. I hope it's never shown. ]]> Wed, 06 Sep 2006 09:44:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70427&title=steve-irwin-dead#70427 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70407&title=steve-irwin-dead#70407 Author: Paws

Does anyone seem to notice the pattern with wildlife enthusiasts(sp?) dying at the paws/stingers/teeth/whathaveyou of what they study or get involved with?

Did anyone watch The Grizzly Man on discovery? He was mauled and eaten by a bear, its just so bizarre how wildlife people get killed by wildlife, maybe they get a little tooo close?]]> Tue, 05 Sep 2006 18:05:30 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70360&title=steve-irwin-dead#70360 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70346&title=steve-irwin-dead#70346 Author: Sarah Beth

I was just reading an Australian paper online and a Queensland sergent who reviewed the footage of Steve Irwin's death has said that there were no suspicious circumstances and the attack by the stingray was unprovoked.

It makes the whole thing seem even more insane to me that Steve Irwin could literally handle all those dangerous animals and yet it was an unprovoked animal attack that took his life. ]]> Tue, 05 Sep 2006 14:31:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70281&title=steve-irwin-dead#70281 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70278&title=steve-irwin-dead#70278 Author: my2angels

A couple of DVDs I ordered last week arrived in the mail today - one of them was Wiggles Safari - with Steve Irwin at the Australia Zoo. Was really sad to see his face on the cover nad think about his kiddies.
As much as I cringed when he was on TV, you could never say he wasn't passionate about the environment and animal welfare - and he's probably taught a heck of a lot of kiddies in the world about the plight of animals etc.
Now I'll try not to let the preggie hormones take over and blub while Andrew's watching the Safari.... ]]> Tue, 05 Sep 2006 13:47:07 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70273&title=steve-irwin-dead#70273 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70268&title=steve-irwin-dead#70268 Author: Paws

I was reading in the Herald that for some in Australia his death is being equated with the death of Princess Di and that many in Queensland want a state funneral if his wife agrees.

To be honest I can kind of understand it...as annoying as some found him he did so much for animal conservation in spite of his unorthodox methods.

And I'll fully admit to having a blub over his death. (yeah I know I'm sad!)

Someone posted it on another forum I go to as well.. sooo sad Yeah he was a bit crazy but he enjoyed what he did and gave it his all! I've been to his zoo as well and it was great, got to see him giving a croc demonstration and I have a photo somewhere of him holding his baby (it must have been Bindy) up in the air in the croc pit.. will have to dig it out ]]> Mon, 04 Sep 2006 20:12:08 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70134&title=steve-irwin-dead#70134 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70131&title=steve-irwin-dead#70131 Author: jack_&_charli

CRIKEY!!!!!   

dean told me about it when he came home, i couldn't believe it! he was a dick, a real dick but he did some great work and i admire him for his love of all things natural.
i just feel for his family, especially terri as i hear she hasn't been able to be contacted yet!!! i hope someone manages to get a hold of her before the media does! can you imagine finding out that way

His poor little kids, they're only young. Still I guess he went out the way he would have wanted to - doing what he loved.]]> Mon, 04 Sep 2006 19:09:28 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70130&title=steve-irwin-dead#70130 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70126&title=steve-irwin-dead#70126 Author: mummy_becks

I have seen the stuff he has done for the widlife in Australia and he has done an amazing job. Australia Zoo is an amazing place and one of the highlights when we took Andrew to Oz 2 years ago.]]> Mon, 04 Sep 2006 18:03:06 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70126&title=steve-irwin-dead#70126 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70124&title=steve-irwin-dead#70124 Author: baalamb

B just came home and told me...it seems totally unreal...

Australia Zoo, Animal conservation, Queensland and most of all his family has suffered a huge loss...love him or hate him the guy was a legend. I personally was a big fan of his as crazy as he could be. He did amazing work.

I really feel sorry for Terri, Bhindi and Bob.

Yep, very sad. Leaves behind his wife, 9 year old daughter and 3 year old son.

It's on all of the Australian news websites ( www.smh.com.au http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/ ) and a few NZ ones ) www.stuff.co.nz www.newstalkzb.co.nz ) and his wikipedia entry has already been updated. Apparently the accident was at midday QLD time - about 3 hours ago. ]]> Mon, 04 Sep 2006 17:04:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70120&title=steve-irwin-dead#70120 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3669&PID=70119&title=steve-irwin-dead#70119 Author: my2angels
