I was so sorry to hear the very sad news about David. A true gentleman and a fantastic host, who always gave everyone a warm welcome, I treasure many happy memories of my time working at the Jacob's Well. Sending much love to Beth and family, and thinking of you all at this difficult time.

David, you and Beth met at our house, I was a witness at your wedding and you were sitting at our table only a few weeks ago. You were one of the very best. We were friends for many years and we will miss you but we have great memories of happy times. Sending our love to all the family.

Sending my condolences to David’s family, friends, and colleagues. I had the pleasure of working with David at The Woodman Inn when I was a student. He taught me how to change my first barrel, how to pour the perfect pint, and was always our greatest advocate- encouraging us to stand up for ourselves on the rare occasion it was needed! Rest in peace David, you were a true gentleman xx

Such a lovely man who will be truly missed.
I delivered David's beer to the woodman on a monday morning and I've never met such a lovely gentleman.
We'd sit down after the delivery and have a good natter.
I loved listening to David's stories about his past and all about his canal boat.
Going to miss our chats.
Sending my condolences to all David's family.
R.I.P David.😞
