Would have been your 47th birthday today David, we miss you more than words can say, but no doubt you'll be having a drink up there with your mates. One day we'll meet again, and embrace for eternity. Until that day comes, you live on within our hearts. All our love, mam and dad. RIP xx

2 years have gone and we're still struggling to come to terms with your passing, in fact we'll probably never come to terms with it, you were only 44. Life is so cruel, and we miss you David, our beloved son, hope you're having a pint up there with your mates who have also sadly passed away. Life down here is hard without you son, but one day we'll meet and embrace each other again, so to send you a message, on your memory, we'd like to say we love you, and miss you, and we'll continue to live with the pain, until it's our turn...RIP David, our boy, until we meet again, from your loving Mam and Dad xx

In memory of our loving son, David, who passed away one year ago on the 26th of March 2017. We still can't believe it David, that you're no longer here, it's very difficult for us all to accept. You were far too young to leave us. All we can say is that we miss you dearly, every day. One day we'll all be together again, but until that day comes, your memory will live on, in our hearts. All our love, your broken hearted Mam and Dad. RIP XXX
