After two years of illness, Nelson Falero lost his hard fought battle, Monday 6th May 2013.Nelson was a loving husband, father and grand-father.

Some heartfelt words from Nelson's daughter, Carol: "He was the true definition of a fighter, never once complaining thoughout the two year battle. Even after months of battling this horrible disease, he would still greet you with an unforgettable smile. Always fighting just so he could stay here with us. We watched him fight ferociously until his last breath. It hurts to know that we will not see him anymore; but we are relieved that he is no longer suffering. We take comfort in knowing that we have our personal angel in heaven looking down on us. Dad, you will truly be missed, may you rest peacefully.
I Hope Australia will wake up and see the damage this disease is doing. Thank you all for your beautiful words {To those in the support group}, I have been having such a hard time trying to come to term with this. Love to All and never give up xxxx "
