Stuart Stevens said his home had been completely “cleaned out”.
Police said the items, which included a bravery award and his grandfather’s pocket watch, were taken between 4pm Saturday and 12.40pm on Sunday after thieves forced entry through a bedroom window.
Flyers have been sent to second hand stores in Bendigo and Shepparton.
Mr Stevens said it was the second time his High Street home had been targeted in nine months.
“We’re devastated,” he said.
“I think you just give up a little bit.
“You work all these years, get things and you have people steal it from you.
“It makes you wonder why.”
