Thanks Lee. Rough news for many of us.
Good bye Dave. You will be missed and can't be replaced.

*sigh*

This is the second death this week for me of a really good fish person and decent human being who will be sorely missed.

Ah, bugger. Sad, sad news.

I'm not very good at commenting on the death of a friend. Best I can do is post a few pictures of Dave - a US catfish convention fixture - it just will not be the same without him.

Cheers,

Jools

Lord, have mercy on David! Sorry to hear of this. Every time Dave and I crossed electronic paths, I was left grateful.
