Irwin died last week after his heart was pierced by a stingray's poisonous barb while filming on Australia's Great Barrier Reef.

Family and pals held a private funeral at the zoo on Saturday and there will be a public memorial service at his 60-acre Australia Zoo wildlife park next Wednesday.

16. When you look at Steve, don't ya just hear him saying, "CROCS RULE!" I'm glad someone shared that. Gosh I miss him. It's nice to see that smiling face. When people are beemed into your life on a daily basis, it's hard to not care about them-even though they don't kno us. We'll never forget you, Steve-O! Lots of prayers to the Irwin family and all his dear friends who are mourning this loss. And Terry? We love you. I think Steve would want us to keep an eye and you and keep an eye on you we will.In Steve's memory, we will be making a donation to "Wildlife Warriors." I hope it's ok that I share this, www.wildlifewarriors.org.au
This was what they advertised on Sunday, when they aired a 6 hr tribute to Steve by showing his best Croc Files on Animal Planet.

17. That's what you get for torturing animals all those years. He took the stingray for granted and he got what he deserved. The lesson here is, if you mistreat animals for shock TV, eventually you will pay the ultimate price, period.

20. I understand that people have the right to say whatever they want with the "Free Speech Act", but whoever this "Parisite" person is that just wrote @ 5:15pm that horrible message... you should be ashamed of yourself. What a sad life you must have to have such hatred in you heart and soul to say such rotten and dispicable things. I will be sure to pray for your soul. obviously you have no conscience. Even if you didn't agreet with him and what his cause was, saying such horrible things is so sad. Forget about his celebrity, he had a family which included small children and a loving, devoted wife. What would possess you or anyone to say such horrible things about someone you didn't know. You should think about your words before writing them or speaking. The blatant disrespect for the dead, is unfortunate and so sad. Shame on you and may God save you and your family from any harm.

21. Steve was truly unique. There will never be another Steve Irwin. His life was far too short..his legacy lives on.

22. #13 the worms wouldnt bother to eat your nasty ass, its not funny to try to get attention laughing at someones death, god will pass judgement to you, so I suggest you pray to god for forgiveness for saying those things.

Your actually sad, I know by your comment your a very depressed and insecure person, dont take out your own feelings on things like this.

25. PETA MEMBER.

I understand that you do not eat animals and that you love all creatures, but you are using a computer and that takes batteries and electricity. What are you doing to save your precious animals? I bet you drive a car and shop at the supermarket and do not eat all natural organic foods. Your support in these activities helps aid in the degragation of the enviroment. Practice what you preach.
No one deserves to die. What is your price? Maybe you will get what you deserve and get struck by lighting while typing on message boards on your computer. Is that justice?
Is is true that Steve was a little outrageous and maybe you thought it was shock tv, but he educated so many people on animals and the neccesity of protecting the enviroment and animals. What are you doing?

29. I wondered if Steve would have had a much greater chance of surviving had he not torn the stingray from his chest? Really a question for someone in the medical profession.

30. I don't need your f***en prayers, scumbags! Go light a f***en candle for Steve, Jerk off, Irwin, OK, douchebags! I'm so sick of this sanctimonist bullsh*t over this guy, enough already! I'm an angry man and I don't give a f*** what you think of me!
