Local man,Thomas Turner, was found hanging from the rafters of his home at 5 Sidewinder Avenue, October 2004. Thomas was a much-loved member of the small town located within the shire of Yarra Ranges, and his death has shocked the close-knit community.
His wife, Catherine, has not yet been found. An investigation into her disappearance remains open.
The house, set on 10 acres of forest in Healesville, where the deaths occurred.
Thomas was a popular member of the local soccer club and the team are devastated at the loss.
Team manager Jacob Baker, said "Tom was the pillar of the team, we're not sure how we'll go on without him. He will be sorely missed."
5 Sidewinder Avenue has a dark past being the same house of the grisly Halloween Murder that shocked the town years before, where a local family man was found bludgeoned in his own home.
