VALE – Monica Coyle
It is with heavy hearts that we share the news of Monica Coyle's passing. Monica, a cherished member of the Yallourn North Fire Brigade from 2000 to 2010, served with dedication and commitment in various roles including secretary, firefighter, and Brigade member. Her invaluable contributions were recognized with the award of her 10-year service medal in 2010.

Monica's presence in our brigade and the broader Yallourn North community was one of warmth, dedication, and kindness. Her unwavering support and tireless efforts have left an indelible mark on all those who had the privilege of knowing her.

We extend our deepest condolences to Monica's husband, Yallourn North Firefighter Brian Coyle, and their family during this difficult time.

Rest in Peace, Mon. You will be dearly missed.

The Patron, Captain, Officer's and Members past and present mourn the passing of former Fireman Leslie James Rowler, late husband to Brigade Life Member Pam and father to our first female fireman, Sue Hannah (Rowler).

Les will be remembered for his good humour, gentle nature, love for his wife of 63 years and their three children, Julie, Susan & Andrew, their respective partners, and his grandchildren.
As a real community member, he contributed to many organisations throughout the township, National Serviceman's Association, Freemasonry, Dromana Junior Football Club, a Life Member of most, however it was probably his time as President of Dromana Senior Football Club where he was most well-known, a passionate vocal supporter to all players on and off the field.
The Brigade provides our sincere condolence to Pam and her family at this sad time for them all.
Funeral details Thursday 4th January, 2024 at 2:00pm
Brigade Secretary T.G. Desmond
