The passing of Shane Ellis.

5 Jun 2015 by Justin Grose


It is with great sadness that the Rowville Football Club advises of the passing of Shane Ellis early this morning the 5th of June 2015.

Tragically taken from us at the age of 41, Shane will be greatly missed and is survived by Justine, Rory and Stephany.

Shane was one of the great club characters that touched may people within the club, whilst coaching is beloved under 12’s, leading the charge with the construction and roofing of our new veranda and more recently assisting on hamburger hill.

The club will be holding a counselling service this coming Tuesday night at the Sebeck club rooms where crisis and grief councillors will be on hand to assist, answer questions or simply be there. The club encourages and welcomes all members to use this service.

Out of respect for Justine and the children we request that the required privacy is provided during this very difficult time.

Further details will follow in the coming days.

RIP Shane!!
