"RUMMINS, David Bruce. Died suddenly on 17 October 2015 after a courageous 6 year journey, aged 65 years. Much loved husband of Robyn, father and father-in-law of Evan and Yvette and Mark and Kelly and adored grandad (gandy) of Leo, Lyla, Jasper, Finn and Gus."

Sadly Dave had contracted Asbestosis around the age of 20, but it didn't show up until many years later. Dave was a great friend of Neil Butler.
