Oh Dave, you fought so hard and held on for as long as you could, until you were simply too tired to keep going. You will be deeply missed 💔

Thank you for being such a wonderful neighbor. I’ll always remember how you were the very first to welcome us into the court — that kindness meant so much.

The love you showed for Annette was truly beautiful. Even when you were so unwell, your thoughts were always with her 💞

Our heart goes out to Annette and Family at this very difficult time.

Love Janine, Ollie, Jack and Ellie

David, you were so brave, and I’m sad to be away on the other side of the world for your service. Thank you for everything you brought to my life through our friendship- from our first days on a board together many years ago, through to our Rotary service until your passing. You will be well-remembered. And I know Warren will miss you terribly.
