Dear Bill Haesler & other friends & admirers of the late Freddy Parkes,
The family wanted a private interment, but a wake will be held on Sunday 22nd August at the Higinbotham Winery, Dromana, on the Mornington Peninsula, about an hour South of Melbourne.  It will start at midday.  Fred was involved with some great musos and events over the years and if what I've heard so far is any indication, there are some hilarious tales to be told.
Best wishes to all,
Sam Meerkin
