It is entirely Dave's fault I am the webmaster of our great association today.

In 77 in Dunmore Park NI he was support company clerk and I was with the int team. So that he didn't have to get up early every day I volunteered to type up the daily intsum for him. Roy Trower (CSM Sp Coy and super ferret) noticed this and suggested I should become a clerk as well.

Typerwriters led to computers and computers led to website design.

There are a couple of pictures of Dave on line in RGJ photo section posing either with the SP coy search team or with a find, I will look them up for you.

RIP Dave, another green jacet gone to the big battalion in the sky, they now have a decent clerk to keep the paperwork straight !!

Thank you so much for the messages and insights into Dad's past, names have been mentioned from my childhood and they've helped me to recall so many memories of him- so thank you. I look forward to seeing the photographs and thank you Tony for your kind words at the service. Regards Tash.
