After hearing the Tom Dancey (Aboriginal Stawell Race Winner 1910) story on 2GB’s Alan Jones’ Breakfast Show, Maureen his niece was pleading with the public and the Dirranbandi local authorities for funds to recognize her great uncle who was buried in an unmarked grave. The Sarkis Bros. pledged a personalized sandstone headstone.
In April 2011, after months of preparation, Charlie Sarkis, Gosford Quarries’ Sales Manager, and John Sarkis Snr, Director, journeyed to Dirranbandi to unveil the headstone and the bronze statue.
The Sarkis Bros. values community involvement as has always been committed to worthy causes such as the Tom Dancey memorial.
