Pauline and family I was so sorry to hear you had lost Dave to such a cruel disease. He was a lovely man with a wonderful sense of humour. I was envious of your wonderful relationship. Remember the wonderful times you all shared. Heather

Thinking of you Pauline,and family, at this sad time with the passing of David whom I had great respect and aroha for. We developed a strong friendship as fellow members of the club. I enjoyed being in his company through the banter and tomfoolery between us. We both gave as much as we received. When David had to finish at the club I really missed him. Hence I made sure to visit him at Riverside. I look forward to meeting family at the funeral. Arohanui Ted Normanton
So sorry for your loss please accept our sincere sympathy
Dear Pauline and family, so sorry for the loss of such a kind gentle man, our thoughts and love is with you, Love Mike and Meg
