Not sure what to say?

To my great friend David,
We didn't work together that much in Australia, however in China on the BlueScope project we needed to work very closely together and formed an excellent partnership.
Always full of life but a true friend and cared about people all the time.
You are sadly missed Dave.
Rest in peace.

Absolutely terrible news last Wednesday. Dave and I have worked on both Shift Work and Day Work alongside each other. Always willing to get in and get the job done. As has been stated a character beyond belief and the sheer nature of the Man will be sorely missed. RIP old mate till we meet again - Trev

So sad to hear of Dave's passing. I fondly remember our times working together in numerous locations. Over the last few years I used to bump into Dave around North gong, as he rode around town. A bundle of joy and energy that will be sadly missed.

RIP Dave.

Dave Jefford

David - you have made many friends in so many places over your short fantastic life. You started work at Lysaght's and then later took the your 1st overseas position in Indonesia. That started many more adventures to every other BSL coating plant in Asia where our paths crossed many times over there and back here in Wollongong

I have received sincere condolences to your family and friends from some of those people you closely worked with including Dave Jefford, Rick Westmoreland, Matt...

1978 Ski weekend

I met David in January 1975 when we both started at John Lysaght as engineering trainees & continued to cross-paths through most of our careers. He was a unique character that brought a different perspective on things & a very caring people person.

It was shocking to learn of his sudden passing at such a young age & will be sorely missed by everyone that knew him.

David, you have always been a very dear friend for most of my life - this world will definitely not be the same place without you. I will miss that beautiful smile.
