Stephen Robert Irwin     22nd February 1962   -   4th September 2006
Tribute
This morning I woke up just like every other morning but unlike every other morning I heard some very saddening news, Steve Irwin had died, my reaction was of shock and thoughts like "you silly man that croc finally caught up with you..." but when I found out it was a stingray I couldn't understand what went wrong...

I think if Steve was still with us he would explain how he was the one invading the stingrays territory and how it wasn't its fault, he was so kind and sympathetic to nature, he did so much for animals...

He was a very special person who I am genuinely upset to see pass away, rest in peace Steve you will be greatly missed.

It has taken me this long to send our most sincere sympathy to Terry and the kids. My grandson and I were great lovers of all of Steve and Terry's work, and my grandson still has Steve's obituary in his special place. Everytime he looks at it, or the show comes on now, he has to change the T.V. or put the paper away cause he still cries. What a remarkable man Steve was. I know he will be truly missed by thousands and thousands of people, and we are just two of them. CRIKEY !!

I wrote this the very moment me mates in Australia called and told me what happened. Figured I could post it here...

****
Steve Irwin...

The Crocodile Hunter...

My hero...

************

To the man who I worked hard to get a chance to even see you, to work with you, to laugh with you... Whom I will never meet, never work with, never laugh with...The Lost Dream.

All of my memorable Life, I have watched you on TV, staring whole-hearted into your face as you would risk Life and Limb saving the animals you so loved. You would take a gnarly bite to the leg to save Wes, who also got bit in the leg, and then as soon as you got out of the hospital, you would jump back in the water... It is truely a gift that you went out doing the one thing on this Earth you did best: Educating the people and saving the animals you, and I, love.

I have strived to help you in your goal, often risking my own life to save animals who would rather eat me and kill me for distrubing their territory, and doing my best to educate people: That snakes are not evil monsters wanting to eat us, that sharks are not surfing the oceans looking for the surfers to munch, and that Alligators are not waiting in the shallows for little 6-year-old girls to run up so they can eat them...Hopefully one day we will succeed...

I have aspired to be as you are: To dedicate my life to save animals, to serve the world in educating people, to protect those who need protection, to teach those who need to be taught, to serve this who need service. Though you are no longer here with us, fighting along side of us, bleeding along of us, you will forever be by our side, and you will forever be within My Heart


I send my deepest and most hearfelt condolences to Terri, Bindi, and Bob, Jr., his father Robert, Wes, Kelsie, the entire Australia Zoo team, and all of us out there how fight this battle saving animals worldwide, who have just lost the most heroic and most charismic man we will ever know, our greatest Wildlife Warrior, and our Best Mate.

Hooroo, mate, and remember....

CROCS RULE!!!!

Dear steve, although we never had the pleasure of meeting you, we watched numerous of your television shows. Also watching the unfolding of your life with the arrival of your young family along with the marriage to Terri. Your trials and tribulations being sprawled accross news headlines. You truely were an amazing man Steve it is such a shame that not only the world has lost a wildlife worrior leader but also the Irwins have lost a wonderful husband, father and friend!
Rest in peace, crocs rule give heaps in heaven above.

His love for wild life was infectious
to the point that I who never saw snakes as wonderful, was now helping them by getting them off the road to keep them from getting run over. None of them were poisonous. I learn from him how to check the books before you touch a snake, that way you know what your going in on. Thanks to Steve and his family I now love Croc's as well as the other animals that live with us in this world. I'm glad he became who he was mean't to be. The wild life warrior of all time.
Thank you.

Hey Steve, I can't say that I ever met you or that I watched your show often. But from what I did see I could tell you had a zest for life and passion. A passion for the things you loved. Wish you could have stuck around for a bit longer mate but you memory will go on. R.I.P. brother.

I love steve and I think he is a great role model for the whole world. He was so caring about the world and his family. He was a great father and husband and even when ignorant and jealous people attacked him he still kept doing as much as he could to help the environment. He is one of the best people who has ever lived, he really contributed to the world instead of just lazily going through the motions. I hope that the world sees that and decides to do thier utmost to help Terry, Bindi and Bob to carry on Steve's great work, they need US now!
