    They say that when a giant Redwood falls over in the woodlands of America, it doesnt make a sound..

    I don't agree - one of the largest trees in the forest has fallen and I wish I could turn back time and do something about it.

    I didn't know David, but I know of his endeavour and unquenchable enthusiasm. This is a rare quality and the gap in the canopy will be difficult to replace.

    I have lost many of my close friends of late and as I get older, the phrase "there go I but for the grace of god" is now familiar.

    This is sad news.

    Maybe even the good lord won't get a clear round now David is setting the course in what I hope is a far better place.

    Mr Baines, You have my respect.

    I've only just heard about Dave and am truly saddened. He will be missed by us all.

    My condolences to Pauline and Dave's family.

    This is a great loss, Dave was one of the first people I met at my first UKAHFT shoot.

    RIP

    Dave Baines

    Very sad news.

    I have not been to the club for a couple of weeks and I have just logged on here to find some news that has deeply shocked me.

    Dave gave me alot of help and advice as he did me many people.

    R.I.P

    You will be missed by us all.

    I only met Dave once and got to speak with him for a few minutes but he came across as a true gent.

    RIP.
