From http://www.wamarriage.info/

thank you so much for all your help detective and everyone your so kind xx I will contact them detective and find out

Would it be worth contactitng http://www.slv.vic.gov.au/ask-librarian the Ask A Librarian service in Victoria.
If you gave them the last known address & year he appeared on the ER, they might be able to trace him forward.

Fawkner Memorial Park might tell you who arranged his wife's cremation, although not their contact details. If it was Bruce, at least you'd know he was alive in 2008.

This looks like an announcement about Florence in the Ryerson Index - basic details relating to deaths culled from newspapers.

Surname Given Names Notice Type Date Type Age Other Details Publication Published
HOWDEN Florence (Bonnie) Funeral notice 17MAR2008 Funeral Herald Sun (Melbourne) 14MAR2008

The Ask A Librarian service could give you the full details. It may name relatives. It probably mentions a funeral directors who you could contact.

Yes detective winifred married Peter stocker but not in uk

Thank you so much I have everything on bruces'sdad he had another wife, just once Nellie went to Australia she didn't come back to UK
