Always loved being with him.
We will miss him and his joy for family and life, as well as his sense of humour.
Rest in Peace

Goodnight sweet prince the love of my life
may flights of angels sing thee to thy rest with organ accompaniment of course
I’ll see you soon with apologies to Shakespeare

Uncle Dave was a jovial, benevolent, at times grumpy presence throughout childhood - full of practical advice and quick with a quip. What he couldn’t do with a piece of string wasn’t worth knowing. The perfect foyle to Jan’s fiery Benstead temperament…
I still remember one Christmas when everyone came to stay at our house in Anlaby Road. Jan & Dave slept on an air bed in my room, and the following morning he woke up a very sleepy Jan with his fists, mock-boxing her, saying ‘Wake up, it’s Boxing Day!’
Lots of love Uncle Dave - safe travels x
