Although it has been only in the last 12-13 years that I have known David, it was a privilege to have met him. He hosted us so wonderfully at his Okiwi Bay home over a weekend. We have fond fishing memories of that time. Hearing stories of the wonderful Beverley, and the hard work that went into making their home at the Bay. Thank you David for those memories, and sharing your knowledge of Hops and beer. And sharing some laughs. Rest in Peace.

Sad to hear of Davids passing. We were fortunate to see him in good spirits at Okiwi Bay a couple of months ago. He and Beverly were a great help to us in Tapawera during the 80's. They are fondly remembered, our condolences to the family.
