Very sad to inform you of the passing of our friend, comrade and fellow Branch member, Vaughan Duggan.
Vaughan had fought an inspirational battle against leukaemia over the past 2 years. Sadly, a bacterial infection weakened his immune system to the extent that he passed away on Monday.
Vaughan made a terrific contribution to the Party locally over many years, most recently serving for a period as Secretary of the Branch, providing comprehensive and detailed analysis of developments in state and federal politics, and being not only an active Branch member but significant contributor to local campaigning efforts.
We will miss his keen political insights and enduring partnership in Labor.
A funeral service for Vaughan will be held at 11am next Wednesday the 25th of October at the Boyd Chapel, Springvale Botanical Cemetery, 600 Princes Highway, Springvale.
In Unity,
Simon Miller
Vice-President, Glen Waverley ALP Branch.
