In loving memory of Dave, a much-loved husband, dad, grandad and friend, who sadly passed away following a long and courageous battle with cancer.

 
Dave faced everything with great strength and remained optimistic throughout, never losing his sense of humour. He loved spending time with his family and friends, watching football, listening to music and enjoying a pint. A kind and caring man who didn't take life too seriously, he was happiest surrounded by the people he loved.
 
He will be greatly missed, but very fondly remembered by all who knew him.
