Born in Nottingham in 1953. Moved to Hereford in childhood. Attended St Martins Primary School and then Redhill Secondary school.
He played football locally for Hereford Lads Club in an era where they produced some fantastic players.
He was then one of the pioneering local ‘backpackers’ of the 1970’s, travelling and living in the likes of Canada and Israel.
Upon returning to the UK he then trained as a nurse at the old St Mary’s Hospital and went on to become Ward Manager on Jenny Lind Ward at the Stonebow Unit for over 25 years.
His three sons are all also working in the NHS as nurses.
Upon retirement he worked as a volunteer at Hereford Skate Park. Dave passed away on 13/10/2024 with family by his side.
He was very much loved by his family and held in high regard by friends and former colleagues.
A ‘celebration of his life’ gathering will take place on:
