David Watkins 12/11/1948 - 12th June 2012

Originally from Manchester with very established Ruardean
roots he left for Australia in 1967, and inherited the passion
for the Forest from his father Harold.

Sadly Dave passed away earlier this week, but leaves
this Forum as a legacy that we intend to continue.

A limb has fallen from the family tree.
I keep hearing a voice that says, "Grieve not for me.
Remember the best times, the laughter, the song.
The good life I lived while I was strong.
Continue my heritage, I'm counting on you.
Keep smiling and surely the sun will shine through.
My mind is at ease, my soul is at rest.
Remembering all, how I truly was blessed.
Continue traditions, no matter how small.
Go on with your life, don't worry about falls
I miss you all dearly, so keep up your chin.
Until the day comes we're together again"



To David's family

May the comfort of God help you during this difficult time.

from
David, Graham, May, Michael and Slowhands
