Australian FIFO worker Byron Haddow, 23, dies suddenly on Bali holiday

A beloved Australian mining worker has died while on holiday in Indonesia, sparking an outpouring of tributes online.

Byron Haddow, a 23-year-old FIFO worker from the Sunshine Coast, passed away in Bali on Monday morning during an overseas trip.

His parents, Robert and Chantal Haddow, said they received the heartbreaking news on Tuesday and were still coming to terms with the tragedy.

They expressed their gratitude for the messages of support but asked for more time to process their grief.

“At this time Chantal, myself, and family are not sure where to look, think, and how to deal with this atm,” the grieving dad wrote on social media.

A GoFundMe page has since been set up to help bring Haddow home.

“A son, brother, and friend to many taken way too soon,” the fundraiser reads.

“As many of you know, he was living his life to the fullest, working away, and achieving so many things.

“All donations will go towards helping bring Byron home to his family, funeral arrangements and expenses to help his family through this tough time.”

Heartfelt tributes have flooded social media, with friends remembering Haddow’s big heart and sense of humour.

“Rest in peace, my brother from another mother. You’ve been taken too soon,” one friend wrote.

“I’ll always remember the good days, and times we have had, and the mischief we made and got up to.

“Love you always brother. You’ll never be forgotten.”

Another posted: “I f****** love you bro.

“Was waiting for a message back from you bro.

“Will never forget that laughter and your ambition.”

Just before his death, Haddow had posted Instagram stories from Beachwalk Shopping Centre and The Coffee Club in Legian.

A spokesperson from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade confirmed consular assistance was being provided to the family.

The cause of his death is still unknown.
