I knew you Dave from Pucklechurch when we was in our school days
(thought you were mad then!) Then met up with Anna about 20 years later
through our kiddies at the same school only to find out you were her hubby!
Oh my god that was so funny seeing you again after all those years.
Keith and myself love our tattoo,s that you did for us last year and will
always remember you by them.You will be missed more than words can say.
Lois and myself will miss your silly wave and funny smile every day on our way to school.
I will help Anna and the kiddies anyway i can, she,s such a fab friend.
R.I.P Dave we all feel so sad and numb at the moment.
luv
little Ange, keith, Tobie and Lois.

Dave,

Shocked you are gone and our thoughts are with Anna, Char, Daisey, Rosie and Olly.

Got to know you through Charlie and my son Jake since they were 4 years old. Jake loved his rides in your dodge when you took him out and about with Charlie.

Two tired eyes are sleeping, two willing hands are still,
The one who worked so hard for us is resting at God’s will.
We hold you close within our hearts and there you will remain,
To walk with us along life’s way until we meet again.
R.I.P

I never new you... but I wish I had....rest in peace Dave Ayres ... sincere thoughts are with your family and loved ones...rest iin peace

Really saddened to hear this sad news. Known you all your life - what a great guy you were (are)! We remember the days of the Springer, Rockpile and Omnibus Club (seems like yesterday but with less tattoos). Keep on Rockin! RIP
All our love

Our love and thoughts are with Anna, Charlie, Daisy, Rosie & Olly and all your family.

Remembering the days at the Fullmoon!

Love Jackie and Family, Smithy, Lisa & Family

Dave, first met in 1973 at primary school, Pucklechurch. Coming from Lawrence Weston I thought you were a country bumpkin (wow,my head still hurts!)..... small world - we all ended up at "The Rockpile" and "Springer" wherever they still served beer at 3am and rockin music! That was 25 years ago! We have shared alot of the same interests including music and the "other"..... You were a larger than life character who earned alot of respect from other blokes in Bristol and beyond! Glad to have spent time with you at the Full Moon and more recently Stray Cats in Brixton in late 2008 and I still have my tattoos to remind me of you (even though we were wrecked at the time). Thanks for all your support over my turbulent years. You gave me some good advice Dave! Never forget you mate! Condolences to your wife, children, family and Oz.
