I first met Dave in 1976 at Dagenham KD. He has always been of gentle nature, kind and caring. A lovely work colleague to know. He moved around at similar times to me, and we have worked in the same areas all our Ford Life. He will be greatly missed by many, one of life’s nice people. RIP Dave. Love Lesley

Dave was a kind, compassionate and intelligent friend. He brought professionalism to the workplace, and outside of work, he was fun-loving and caring, and spot-on at putting the world to rights!
A truly lovely person who will be greatly missed. Xx

Dave was a great friend, he was kind, generous and knowledgeable about more things than you could care to mention but especially about his beloved cricket. We spent many happy hours over a few pints or a glass or two of red wine setting the world straight ! He will be truly missed.

There are a million wonderful things I could write about my Grandad - He gave me my first pint and always took me to the pub with him even when my mum said no. He was a character who loved a laugh and adored Southampton FC.
For the last 5 years he has been an invaluable part of my daughters life and he relished being a Great Grandfather. Some of my most cherished memories is watching them both together.

You will be missed beyond words Grandad, we loved you dearly.
