I met Dave when I started working at the Bacon Theatre, Dean Close School In 2006 in my capacity as Theatre Technician and Dave was my boss. Eight of those years we worked very closely with each other , a true friend, colleague and very funny man, Dave would never let you down if you needed something. One of the hardest working people I’ve met. I will never forget you Dave and I am truly humbled to have worked with you. Rest in peace Dave .

A much loved and very much missed friend, Gary and I shared many happy moments, and a few tears, with Dave over the years, working together building sets at Dean Close, trips to the theatre, lunches out at the local. Texts on Christmas morning from somewhere exotic! A true friend and quiet man, with a wicked sense of humour. We will miss you so very much dear friend, rest in peace.

Brother in Law, Uncle, Great Uncle, Dave will be sadly missed by us all. I have known Dave for more than 50 years, from a typical teenager to the man he grew to be. A man of few words, great sense of humour, and good company. Him talking to our dog Skye saying “ wag your wagger “ with a grin on his face is one memory among many of an all round good guy. Rest in peace Dave with love from John and Skye xx
