I have had a call from Lorraine Nixon this evening to tell me that David died on Saturday. He suffered a massive stroke a couple of days after the winter rally and subsequently had stage four dementia. His Seadog Gina of Parkstone is being taken over by a member of the family but of course because it was in joint names it has taken a long time for Lorraine to become the sole owner.
She has tremendous support from her family and is selling her house on the island to be nearer
to them
I will send flowers from the SOA when I know the funeral arrangements
