In memory of Clifford "Cliff" Berrigan

By Maria Martin

In memory of Cliff & in lieu of flowers, we are raising funds for Dementia Research

Thank you for donating to Dementia Australia in memory of Cliff Berrigan,  our dearly loved Husband, Father, Grandfather, Godfather, Brother, Uncle and Friend.

All his life, Cliff loved cars and driving.   

He was very happy & proud to pass his motor vehicle drivers licence examination again when he was 91 years old.   Unfortunately in the final months of Cliff’s life, he lost much of his memory and cognitive function after a serious illness.   If Cliff had returned home, he would never have been able to drive again.

Cliff was passionate about supporting charities during his life and would love funds being raised in his memory.

Dementia is the second leading cause of death in Australia and 25% of adults over 85 years old, will have some memory loss or reduced cognitive function. 

All donations received will support the work of Dementia Australia in research which will help minimise the impact of this disease in the future. 

On behalf of Cliff, and our family, Thank you for your generosity.  

Mass of Thanksgiving to Celebrate Cliff’s life

Due to COVID 19 restrictions, family and friends are kindly invited to watch a Mass of Thanksgiving to Celebrate Cliff’s life, which will be livestreamed at 11.30am on Friday 27th August 2021.   A video recording will also be available for 6 months for you to visit in your own time.   Refer to the following private page for more details:

I adored my beautiful Uncle Cliff - he was always so generous of his time, skill & love ❤️ He was a true gentleman and I loved the way in which he loved his family & especially dear Aunty Lorna. “From a Jack to a King”

Supporting research into the development, diagnosis & treatment of dementia is a truly worthy cause as it has touched so many lives & others in our family. In memory of my wonderful uncle & the love he had for his sister with dementia.
