Steve Irwin What a Bloke

I had to put a post on here about Steve Irwin dieing this afternoon. I was really sad to hear about it and very shocked. I feel so bad for his family.
Steve Irwin has died in a diving accident in far north Queensland. He was 44.
Police say he was stung through the heart by a stingray while diving off Port Douglas.
He was filming a documentary when the accident occurred around midday AEST near the Low Isles.
A helicopter arrived with paramedics on board to try to resuscitate him, but it was too late.
Irwin's body is being taken to the morgue in Cairns.
His family are believed to be flying from Brisbane to Cairns this afternoon.
Irwin, who was was born in Victoria in 1962, inherited his love of reptiles from his father.
His father Bob was a keen reptile enthusiast and moved the family to Queensland in 1970 to open a small reptile park on the Sunshine Coast.
Irwin took over the family business in 1991 and grew it into Australia Zoo.
In 1992 he ventured into television, making the first series of the Crocodile Hunter.
When the program aired in the United States, he shot to international fame.
Irwin is survived by his wife Terri and two children.
I just wanted to add a little something to this. I just watched the Memorial Service which was held at the Crocoseum at Australia Zoo. It was a very touching event and Bindi is an asset to her wonderful parents, she delivered a wonderful speech about her Dad and was very brave. I think she shows what wonderful parents Steve and Terri are. Her Dad would be so proud of her. It was sad to watch but also so nice to watch clips of Steve doing his great work. I will miss him for sure, I love his shows and am gutted there won't be more, however, I think that Bindi will follow in his footsteps and have a brilliant TV show.
