All those years ago when my daughter Olivia applied for a dancing grant I would never have thought David end up being one of my greatest business supporters. A true gentlemen and always willing to help the community and certainly an example for all of us to follow. My thoughts are with you Fiona and the rest of the family.

Fiona. This is a voice from the past. I am sorry to hearing of David's passing, but obviously, he must have been ill for some time. I enjoyed meeting you both regularly at the coffee shop all those years ago and still remember Davids involvement with Canterbury Foundation band. My sympathy to you and the family. Kai Kaha.
