Bendigo Community Bank have paid tribute to one of the stars of their team and esteemed member of the community, David Green, who passed away suddenly on 2 June at the age of 74.

He was a cherished husband, father and grandfather, along with serving as the director, treasurer, and company secretary of Sunshine Coast Community Financial Services Limited for seven years.

His dedication and integrity were instrumental in shaping the organisation, where his contributions to the financial sector and his commitment to community service left an indelible mark on all who knew him.

David was a devoted husband to his beloved wife, Carol.

Together, they recently celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary, a testament to their enduring love and partnership.

“David and Carol were a joy together; I recall the pride and love in David’s eyes when talking with or about Carol, his children and grandchildren,” Trish Radge said, on behalf of the directors and staff of Bendigo Community Bank.

David was a loving father to Simon and Emma who brought immense pride and happiness into his life.

As a grandfather, David and Carol loved babysitting each week, travelling to Brisbane to spend time with their family.

“David Green is well respected by all the staff, he shared wisdom, he really listened to all that was said and had the good fight when needed. He always had everyone smiling with him. He’s certainly going to be missed by us all”, Kerryn Vincart branch manager Tewantin shared.

“David’s life was a testament to the values of hard work, generosity, and compassion. He was deeply respected by his colleagues and community members, and we will miss him.”
