BUT I GOT TO KNOW DAVE BETTER, AS HE CAME TO SEE US A FEW TIMES HERE IN TENERIFE AND  SEEING HIM AND HIS FAMILY WHEN I GOT BACK TO RHOOSE, HE ALWAYS HAD A HAPPY OUTLOOK ON LIFE. DAVE WAS FOUND TO HAVE CANCER AT THE START OF THIS YEAR, ON ONE OCASION TALKING TO HIM ON THE PHONE, ASKING HIM HOW HE WAS COPING, HE SAID “CHARL, YOU HAVE JUST GOT TO GET ON WITH IT MATE”

DAVE LOST HIS BRAVE FIGHT, DAVE WILL BE BURIED THIS THURDAY THE 10TH SEPTEMBER. IF THERE IS A LIFE THERE AFTER, I THINK DAVE WILL BE UP THERE WITH A PINT ” GETTING ON WITH IT” WAITING FOR THE NEXT 6 NATIONS CLASH, HE LOVED HIS RUGBY. OUR THOUGHTS GO OUT TO HIS WIFE JAN, HIS DAUGHTER EMMA, HIS TWO BROTHERS ADRIAN AND ROBERT, AND ALL HIS FAMILY . REST IN PEACE DAVE. CHARLIE, JANE AND ALL AT THE ORIGINAL WIGAN PIER. A FRIEND LOST..

WENT TO DAVE’S FUNERAL, THE CHURCH IN BRIDGEND WAS FULL AND SOME, WITH SO MANY OF HIS MATES AND FAMILY THERE, DAVE WAS A VERY LIKEABLE GUY, HE WILL BE SO MISSED. WITH SO MANY PEOPLE THERE TO SAY THERE GOODBYS, I THINK IT WOULD HAVE PUT A SMILE ON DAVE’S FACE.
