Deepest condolences to the family. Remembering Dave with fond memories of not only being my driving instructor, but a friend and mentor. We always had a great laugh whilst learning to drive, Dave was understanding and having patience with my learning disabilities. I appreciated everything he did. So sorry for the loss of a lovely man.

Dave will allways be remembered for his humble and respectful attitude to all .A true gentleman his family and mine were long time friends and neighbors and was allways a real pleasure to bump into each other from time to time and he would allways ask about all our family and bring up great memories of the past.
Will be sadly missed
