Dunka Raymond Caldwell, known as Humdinger2037 on TikTok, passed away on Thursday night, leaving a legacy of a family man who spread positivity everywhere he went.

His social media presence, with more than 200,000 followers, made a significant impact on the Glebe and broader Sydney community.

The community has expressed deep support following his death, announced Friday morning.

Mr Caldwell's sister, Kirri Fernando, passed away on Wednesday.

Shanell Dargan, along with many others, have expressed their condolences to his friends and family.

"Absolutely devastated to hear of your passing my brother. I know everyone in our community has a heavy heart today and will now forever," Ms Dargan wrote.

Thank you for always being the life of the party & always supporting me.

"The world is a little less bright with out you in my brother."

Ms Fernando was the mother of Tyrone Munro, a South Sydney Rabbitohs player.

Both Mr Caldwell and Ms Fernando will be deeply missed.
