In Memory of Ernest David Staveley Founding Member

[quincannon]

Once again all of us are saddened by the passing of a founding member of this board, David Staveley, "edavid" to some "BrevitorCoffin" here. 

David joined us within hours of this board being established. His wisdom, good humor, and absolute integrity were his calling cards, but there was much more. When David learned of his cancer he never gave up, and faced the next couple of years with a courage, sought by all, but rarely on display to the point where he inspired each and every one of us each and every day. Every one of us wants to be just like him, and what better can be said of any man.

I concure with that sentiment as he was very brave and fought to the end with dignity.

I have left my thoughts and comments on his memorial site. www.forevermissed.com/ernest-david-staveley/#about There are some wonderful pictures and history there.

David thank you for your support last year in my time of need, while you were fighting your fight. You will be missed by all here.

A really fantastic man. What a loss.

To you David always Cheers..I still owe a beer.

Brother David and I bonded over our experiences on another board run by a gnome who disliked us both. We corresponded often and spoke by phone once dealing with his struggles against cancer. We had much in common but most especially our love for our grand babies.

I know he has gone on to be with the Lord and is suffering no more. 
Regards
Dave

One thing to add, I don't think David had a bad word to say about anybody, he also never crossed words with anybody and seeing that he was a member off all three boards then that would be classed as a miracle, but that was the measure of the man.

I am heartbroken. He was a class act and he will be greatly missed.
