To Beverley and family,
So sorry to learn of your sudden loss. Deepest sympathy to all including the extended family of David. I remember him when I attended Sunday Scohool and later Bible Class at the Methodist Church King Street, Rangiora, and also at Rangiora High School when he there was nicknamed as "Monster Ayres". I am a cousin (although somewhat a bit distant through the Judson/Smith/Ayers connection). Sincerely,

Bev and family - - Sad to read of your loss of David. We met at events in Rangiora and Kaiapoi in the early '60s,then shared many fun times in London. It was great to have reunited here in recent years. I know how much he will be missed. My thoughts are with you.
