It has been great to know David and I am sure there will be some great stories at his service. Thinking of you all at the sad time.

My condolences Trish and Family. I used to enjoy seeing Dave at the Warehouse and exhanging some friendly banter.! Funnily enough being a bit older than Dave I didn't realise until recently when we both commented on a Facebook post about Marist Brothers that he had also been a pupil and that we both loved the place....NOT!!!!! R.I.P. Dave.
