Dear Jenny, Happy memories live on. Of Dave & you in Menorca; of silly card games, of bocadilla calamares & cerveza 'swimming pool'. Love & best wishes, Dave W

Jenny, we only wish that we had had the opportunity to get to know Dave better. But through his letters we had a glimpse of his intelligence and wit! We're glad that Mum and Abi had time to visit you both over the last few years. We are thinking of you at this difficult time. With love, Alix and Kevin

Farewell to a much-loved son and brother who enriched all of our lives immeasurably.

David had a life-long love of literature, art and music, he treasured culture and knowledge, and regularly filled his days with all of these, which gave him great pleasure, as did his home, his kitties and an occasional contemplative afternoon beverage on the back porch with the crossword, however above all he enjoyed an unshakeable belief in the inherent good of humankind.

His extensive writing output on every subject, packed with insight and his unique humour were a great source of entertainment, and latterly of comfort for us all, and will forever serve as a constant reminder of him. His legacy to us will always be a lifetime of wonderful, happy memories. He will be deeply missed forever.

Our thoughts are with you Jenny.
Jamie, Denise, Mum & Dad,

Jenny, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I know Dave was a fighter and did not let his cancer get in the way of enjoying life. My deepest sympathy for you and your loved ones.

Jenny, I don't know if you remember me, but I worked with Dave at The Landings for many years. I loved his dry sense of humor and God only knows...a human resources director always needs to be around one with a sense of humor. He had a long battle and now he has won. He is playing golf on the most beautiful golf course in the world and without pain and waiting to spend eternity with you. Judi Palmer

I am going to miss you a lot Mr.Dave. You were a great friend, some one i could talk to, and you would listen. You were wonderful in every way. When i first heard the news it was really hard but if I look at it that at least your not in pain anymore it kind of helps. Miss you very much, Jessica.

Jenny,
I always enjoyed talking to Dave when he came in. He had a great attitude on life!
I know that it has been a tough road for both of you. May God bless you and give you strength and hope during this hard time. May your feline companions give you company and a connection to Dave in the days ahead.
