Thank you for the news, sad as it is. I am particularly sad, indeed grieving, about the passing of Dave. We were friends from young, farm neighbours in the Rustenburg, Mates as School House, eventually ending us as close friends in the Airline. As varsity rouges we drove colourful sports cars, he a black TR3 with metal rims (faster), I a powder blue MGA with spoke wheels (much better looking) – the number of girls who this charming: all; me: nil. Everyone who met him loved him – his pure, upfront modest charm, a sharp brain and his devastating good looks won over all who met him!
