I’m still in shock to hear this very sad news. I volunteered with Dave at Ness Gardens and found his kindness and persuasiveness just the right combination of motivation to encourage me to work hard with the other stronger and more energetic ‘blokes’! I also enjoyed his enthusiasm about volunteering at Dibbinsdale, since I’ve also worked there in the past. He will be greatly missed by all his friends at Ness. I send my heartfelt condolences to Dave’s family at this sad time.
