Please scroll down to the bottom to share your memories and photos of David

 

David was an avid sports fan.  He was good at most sports he tried.  He played soccer and AFL as a child, and later played cricket.  He was a member of the Burbengary Cricket Club for many years, and a member of the Palmer Cricket Club at the time of his death.

 

He had three children in his first marriage to Gayle:  Michelle (Shelly), Veronica and Robert.

While he may not always have expressed himself well, he loved his kids and was very proud of their achievements.
