Sending love, thoughts and healing prayers to Eddy, James, Lauren and family during this tough time. Gary, Doug and I are grateful to have had the opportunity to have known Dave and call him our friend. May he rest in eternal peace. Until we meet again, Dear Friend.
Right now it’s hard to imagine life without my brother.
He has always been there for me, more so since I lost my dear husband. It must have been hard for him as he was in pain himself after the loss of his son Nicholas. Although there was many miles between us , thanks to modern technology, we saw and chatted every single day..
He loved his work and travel but most of all his family who have all had their fare share of pain recently. I pray for their strength to get through this very sad time.
Rest in peace My Big Brother . I love you. Diane.X. ( ENGLAND)
