Neil Donaldson, was a true Primac Guru. He was a legend of the beef industry, known by many across Queensland and Australia. He was easy to befriend, never held a grudge, and was the most likeable person one could ever meet. Neil was dealt a tough hand in life, but he never complained, always sticking to his mantra “it is what it is!” and simply got on with it to the end. Neil passed away on the 25th April 2022 at just 66 years of age. RIP Neil, you certainly packed so much in to a wonderful life. You will be missed, by your good friends at Primac Gurus.
Neil’s funeral service was held at Burstows Funeral Chapel in Toowoomba on the 5th of May 2022.
A copy of his service is included in this post. Among the large gathering, was a large contingent of Neil’s family, along with a long list of industry colleagues and friends, and many good friends from his Primac days in Queensland and Papua New Guinea.
