They could broadcast it on large screens at Brisbane Entertainment Centre and Suncorp Stadium so more people can be "there."

Everybody loves Irwin!!

Irwin was one of the few celebs, if not the only celeb who always came across as 1000% positive, who really inspired and uplifted people and I find it no suprise that this many people have responded to his passing. For example this speech he makes at the end of this video below is just incredible....

Don't know why this struck me funny ..."the Crocoseum that was built by Mr. Irwin" ... he was just soooo *not* a "Mr. Irwin."

Sounds like a man in a suit! And he'd say, "you mean me dad, Bob?"

Gettin' weepy again, again.

Oh, and hey, it mentioned perhaps being on ABC TV network (and radio) here in the US, which would be great - lots of people will be able to watch.

I will really mis him - his shows, his enthusiasm for nature.

He may have had faults, but insincerity did not appear to be one of them.

Mr Irwin's manager and close friend John Stainton said the service would involve guests sharing their memories of Mr Irwin, with John Williamson to perform the Crocodile Hunter's favourite song, True Blue.

Hey True Blue, don't say you've gone
Say you've knocked off for a smoko
And you'll be back later on
Hey True Blue, Hey True Blue

Give it to me straight
Face to face
Are you really disappearing,
Just another dying race,
Hey True Blue.

True Blue, is it me and you?
Is it Mum and Dad, is it a cockatoo?
Is it standing by your mate
When he's in a fight?
Or will she be right?
True Blue, I'm asking you...

Hey True Blue, can you bear the load?
Will you tie it up with wire,
Just to keep the show on the road?
Hey True Blue, Hey True Blue, now be Fair Dinkum

Is your heart still there?
If they sell us out like sponge cake
Do you really care?
Hey True Blue.

True Blue, is it me and you?
Is it Mum and Dad, is it a cockatoo?
Is it standing by your mate
When she's in a fight?
Or will she be right?
True Blue, I'm asking you...

True Blue, is it me and you?
Is it Mum and Dad, is it a cockatoo?
Is it standing by your mate
When he's in a fight?
Or will she be right?
True Blue ... True Blue.

Hey Aussie, I heard about the huge memorial for Steve today. Do you know any websites that may have covered it or recorded it? I looked for it on TV here in New York, but it seems the terror loving puke arse media here is more concerned with what that SOB Iranian President has to say at the UN than Steve. I`m really ticked off I missed it. Someone told me his daughter read a really heartbreaking letter. Me and my brother made a donation to Wildlive warriors last week and it really sucks terrorists in this country get more press than someone like Steve.
