David W Baines

[David Snook]

Sad news indeed...

I have a special memory of David, arriving back at the Daystate Booth from the "underwater gun" episode, dripping wet with a lopsided grin on his face. It wasn't until later that we found out that he was not a good swimmer.

That was the essence of the man, always up for anything, helpful and full of his unique brand of dry humour.

Not only was he an excellent ambassador for our sport, but also an excellent person where it was a delight and a privilege to know him.

He will be sadly missed.

My sincere condolences to his family and friends.

David
