First of all I would like to say thankyou to everyone for giving our Dave a great send off, with so many members and cougars in attendance we did the big guy, his family, friends, colleagues and the club proud!

From a day of great sadness, came great thing's. We have been thanked by all the family for supporting them in these hardest of time's.

A lovely service at Bedford crematorium, with some very touching music played throughout, some words of thanks from Doc's son Mathew and a poem that Dave's daughter Kelly wrote and read without a tremble in her voice, such a strong gal, well done Kelly!

This is the day from my side of the lens, please understand we have alot of respect for Dave, but he know's what our meet's turn into..........and i wasnt gonna let him down :wink:

Many thanks to everybody for supporting each other, and showing DaveÔÇÖs family how much we thought of the big guy. Also thanks to everybody at UK Cougar for the support and kind words even though you couldnÔÇÖt make it, it has meant a lot to DocÔÇÖs family.

On the way to the retail park we passed a silver Cougar stood in traffic, the look on the drivers face was so funny as 6 Cougars convoyed past him :LOL:
As we made our way to the layby the look on peoples faces as 12 Cougars convoyed past them was amazing. When we were all parked in the layby car & wagon drivers were sounding their horns at us as they drove past 8)
 
Excellent photos Bob :D

Is Dave's sister's tattoo a real one?? Really nice tribute either way :)

Stewart - some things never change..... :roll: :LOL: :wink:

Lorraine - hahaha we've all seen you now! :LOL:
 
Excellant pic's bobby boy as usual. Although thanx for pointing out just how see through my top is, think i could have got away with it had u not pointed it out. It was ace that so many turned up to pay respects, all in all i think dave would be proud.
 
Fantastic Pics Bobby mate :D

Dave would have been migty proud of the club. :wink:

I think we need to put all these pics in Daves own little album in this section now.....what do you reckon?

It's a real tattoo Jamie, Angela got the Cougar heads from Pid_16V sig that Dave made for him.

And Bob had to be really sneaky with the camera to get those picture's of Lorraine :LOL:
 
The pics are really cool, i will print them off so my grandparents can have a look.
