Dave was a true gentleman and one of the good guys. It was a pleasure every day to work with him. He was greatly respected by all who came in contact with him during his career with MQM, NZFSA, MAF and MPI. You were taken way too early. Go well Dave you are sorely missed.

Very sad to hear that Dave has passed away. I worked closely with Dave at MAF for over 20 years on the Christchurch circuit and knew him before that when he worked at Islington. He was a workmate and close friend who was loyal to his employer and fellow colleagues. He was a hard worker and could be depended on to get a job done. Rest In Peace Dave.
