Dave was a family man and a dear friend to many.He was very much respected in his career which he loved and as per was bloody brilliant at.
Just looking at his children and their achievements would make him swell with pride and I used to laugh at him trying to stem the tears.He also made us laugh until we cried at times because of his impatience,intolerance of fools along with his razor wit and observations -no-one was safe.
He was a very clever man -nothing at all fazed him -he was quite simply invincible -until 27 August 2007 when his greatest passion -motorbikes -was the very thing which ripped him from us.It was an accident but true to form it wasnt Daves fault -he was quite simply the best,most respected biker there was and I would have trusted him with my life unfortunately someone else, as happens didnt value his.
I now go to phone him because of a problem and then have to remind myself that the problem in the main is due to the fact he isnt here.
He would be so proud of our 2 children and the strength, in the face of such adversity they have shown.He lives on in them and for that I shall be eternally greatful.Im so glad through thick and thin, good and bad he was part of our lives -forever indebted for that.
Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
