My friend , Laufa and I attended the funeral of Robert Higgs today at St Thomas ' Church Bunyip..Victoria , Australia .
Father Ken Parker , asked everyone who attended the service to take away something from the service to make ourselves better .
The words form Robert`s brother Daniel , bought me to tears .
His was a story .... one that has to be told ... , his brother Robert was born to an unmarried aboriginal woman in Melbourne 1965, the story went his mother walked out of the hospital without her child .
What really happened , was horrific and was happening throughout Australia ...
I can`t put into words the journey that was Robert Higgs`s , but I mourn his death and support the family he has left .
Australia , past and present you need to hang your head in shame .
