It was with sadness and shock that I read a brief mention in australian surf mag ‘Waves’ december issue…
" Liam Fitz’s death by misadventure at a Warriewood [Sydney’s northern beaches] cliff was followed by the most stoic of services in which Terry, Pauline, Kye and Joel did Liam proud…"
there wasn’t really any other details given.
My personal thoughts and prayers and sympathy and best wishes to the whole Fitzgerald family.

Liam was the youngest of the three brothers, and the other natural footer in the family. Terry his dad dedicated the Pro junior at Narrabeen this year to Liam.
I think I remember meeting Liam at the Surf Expo in Orlando a couple years back, both the Fitz kids were real cool guys, no BS or attitude whatsoever. Liam and Kye were repping some killer reissues of Terry Fitz’s Hot Buttered quiver of the mid 70’s. These were Terry’s hand shapes complete with the airbrush schemes of the old boards (done by the same guy that did them back then). I’m still kicking myself for not buying one. RIP and condolences to the family and friends. Hopefully theres good surf waiting for him up above.
Also, Vaughton Taumpson, (brother of Bottle.) also died earlier this year… But the Burlz boys will never forget him, on every table at burleigh theres a r.i.p vt on it…
