Dear Sue & family
I can't even begin to imagine the void this big guy has left in your world. He was a straight shooter and could spot a fool a mile away. A massive heart if gold, he will always be fondly loved and remembered in my family.
Love and big hugs

To dear Sue and family love hugs and prayers to you all. Dave was a very special man with an amazing sense of humor. I am really pleased he come into my live. He made me laugh at work and would make the garden glow with his special touch. The church looked amazing when he had finished with it. The place was not the same when he had to leave due to his health. I will miss you Dave may you make heavens garden glow just like you did here. Sadly miss but never forgotten xxx love Gina
