Steve Irwin (crocodile hunter) dies..........

[judi]

Wow, just watched the video of Bindi, that was hard to watch. I'm Dvr'ing Animal planet to watch later but sneaking peaks now and again, very touching. My heart goes out to the family.

 

[MaryAnnDVC]

"Wow" was exactly what I said after seeing Bindi speak. What a charming, confident little girl, who surely learned so much of it from her dad. I'm sure she'll achieve great things. My prayers go out to her, her brother, and her "mum".

Bindi was amazing!!! What strength. She is Steve's girl!!

 

[luckystar]

Bindi's words were beautiful. She is such a brave and smart little girl and amazes me everyday.


Edited to ask: Does anyone song the name of the song that everyone sang ?

 

[WDWLVR]

What a beautiful memorial service. What a wonderful mix of tears and laughs and all the animals. Bindi is his all right - what an amazing little girl.

 

[N.Bailey]

OMG, I didn't have my tissue ready. What was I thinking? I didn't think I'd react to the memorial like this, but boy was I mistaken. IMO, this service was the best way to honor Steve's memory.

 

[WDW Poly Princess]

WOW, I was okay until Bindi spoke. I really believe that she will carry on her father's work and dreams.

 

[dmslush]

Bindi was amazing. I can't imagine having that much strength as a child! I do hope she achieves everything her little heart desires!

 

[DiznEeyore]

What an amazing family; what an amazing life those children have led with their parents. It breaks my heart that their dad is gone, but what a legacy he has left in those children.

 

[kejoda]

Does Steve have any brothers or sisters?

 

[sha_lyn]

Oh boy that was hard to watch. At one point I was crying so hard I upset the dog.

That was simply AMAZING. My family just finished watching the entire Memorial. I have finally stopped crying to come here on the DIS to just say this certainly was the saddest Memorial. Driving his truck away...ahh...!!! Bindi Sue was outstanding. Steve would have been so proud. He actually was looking down from Heaven at this wonderful event planned for him. The video clips and all the speakers were wonderful.

I have been crying for two weeks now.. just when I think I'm okay - I see or hear something that reminds me of Steve - and as you would guess - I'm a blubbering mess right now... and all of this from someone who never met him -I didn't even watch Crocodile Hunter everytime it was on! I can't IMAGINE what his family and close friends are going through - I can't imagine.

Bindi already has her Dad's passion - she along with her Mom and Baby Bob are in my prayers every night.

Steve Irwin will be at the top of my list of people to meet when I get to heaven - because you know that's where he will be - with his Mom and Sui.

What else can I say...

Crikey! We'll miss you mate!


Can I stop crying now???

I believe he has two sisters. One of them was feeding the elephants with bindi and bob.

 

[disneymouse]

i agree, it was so sad when they were packing up his truck and drove away during 'true blue'

Amen, Mare. That service was so touching.

 

[THE HAT]

It was perfect, beautiful, touching, heartfelt, sad, and exactly the right way to pay tribute. Wes, Bob, Bindi (how amazing was she?!!?) all spoke with such rawness. I had tears throughout the whole memorial, but when Brian-o packed that truck up and drove off...................sobs. Terri did the perfect thing when she had the memorial at the zoo. How wonderful of them to share it all with us..........

 

[N.Bailey]

Oh boy that was hard to watch. At one point I was crying so hard I upset the dog.

I was like this during many parts of the service as well. It was TOUGH to watch. My heart breaks for the entire family.

 

[mickey4ver]

Didn't that service seem to be "just Steve"....it was a wonderful celebration of his life and family. I found it to be just perfect. Bindi Sue is just a marvel, what a devoted, charming and smart little girl! To get up and speak like that at her age, truly Daddy's little girl.

I will await the special with Terri next week with Barbara Walters...I'm sure that will just as heartwrenching.

This really sums up how I felt about the whole thing. Touching memorial--- it's really strange how hard this has hit me when I've never met the man.
