Only just found out about David and Stephen. I am so sorry for your loss. They were both great people. I still remember David taking my photo outside the Spar shop 25 years ago….and promising to send me a copy! And Stephen….I knew him for over 40 years…a tragedy. I just wish we had kept in touch….

Dear Judy, Lisa & Stephen. We have only just heard the sad news of David's passing & wanted to express our sincere condolences to you all. Dave was a true gentleman & it was always a joy to be in his company. We will remember fondly our catch up chats at the Grimsby screen cinema before the start of a film where his infectious smile & laugh always made the world feel like a better place.

Only just seen this and cannot believe you have passed away Dave. I will always have great memories of the seasons we played football together for Findus GY FC. You always had a smile on your face, and were truly one of lifes true gentlemen. God Bless you Dave and Up The Mariners.

Memories of a great workmate, remembering all the jokes we shared at the Tank Farm. Dave was a true gentleman and I was privileged to have known and worked with him.
