A Tribute To Dave.




Dave was a man Loved by all that knew him or of him.
Struck by an awful disease that left his chances of a long life slim.
He fought for his life for his loving family's sake too.
For Gina, Harry and of course Luke who's love for Dave was so true.

If ever there was such a thing as the perfect family or guy,
You would have found that in the Wiffen's you want to know why ?
Their love was so genuine, honest, deep, meaninful, tender and pure.
Plain for everyone to see friends family, all that knew of him thats for sure.

So much warmth, love, caring and happiness all under one roof,
It radiated through the words and affection you needed no proof.
An amazing Wife Gina who stayed strong and brave every step of the way.
Supporting, inspiring, encouraging, determined for her husband every day.

How fortunate we all are to know such a fantastic Husband and Wife.
They reached out and touched so many hearts in the fight to save Dave's life.
Now Dave has passed on and accepted his wings at heavens domain,
He will be able to watch over his family without suffering or pain.

You came into this world exactly 42 years ago to the day
Then passed away on that special occasion your birthday.
Celebrated in life the joyful and wonderous day you were born and arrived.
Your life celebrated again 42 years later but also mourned as the day you died.

Dear Dave, Gina will always have a place for you in her soul and heart,
With a love so strong and wholesome you will never ever be apart.
Your sons will be a reminder of the Father they know,
In them a piece of you will live on forever and grow and grow.
