Not sure what to say?

Hey George..late night walks by the River Frome in Somerset or sitting out beneath the Abruzzo stars - we salute you and your memory. Go well... Hugh & Kate

Oh George!!....
So I fly in from London and read this sad news....this is far too soon....memories of UWA in the 70's....a passionate man on a mission...
Deepest condolences to all....

George, you were my mentor and my hero, from the wild days as Pelican editor and your haunt at Lesmurdie Falls onwards. Soon over Babaluma, my dear departed friend.

Vale Blaz:
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight.

In the scheme thingswe were only together for about 20 minutes
but it was one hell of a 20 minutes!
With respect to Dylan Thomas and my friends.

Our heartfelt condolences to Leonie, Djuro, Georgia and Klara for the loss of their much loved partner, father and brother.
One of a kind that can never be replaced but will be remembered with fondness by all who knew him. Salut George.

George was a whirlpool of energy and ideas with an electric touch. The stillness will be forever strange..we are glad to have known him and shared music and cycling and politics and much more. Love to those left behind. Cathy and Niall

In. Memory of George Blazevic, a colleague at The Australian bureau in Perth so very long ago. George was asked to transfer to Sydney at the end of 1979, decided to stay in Perth, and I went instead. One of those accidents that changed my life. I lost touch but never forgot his incredible energy. My condolences to his loved ones. Helen Trinca

Blaz, you were bright-eyed, sparky, warm, fierce, whimsical, heretical, lateral and crazy, in the best sense. I'll miss you!

Old Friend If only our tears could bring you back to us. Rocco Stiletto
