The 83-year-old passed away due to ongoing health battles on Saturday, 30th October. He is survived by his beloved partner of almost 50 years, Patti, children Lauren and Matthew, their partners and six grandchildren.

Patti revealed in a heartbreaking public statement that she missed her husband's death by roughly 10 minutes.

"I left at ten past seven, and I was just pulling around to come into my drive and I get the call to say he'd taken his last breath at 7.22pm.

"So I missed him, but maybe he didn't want me to be there for his last breath."

Join Studio 10 this Friday and reminisce on Bert's extraordinary life live from 8:00am, only on 10 and 10 play on demand.
