From the land of the Bluenose.....a very sad day as my very dear friend and digging buddy Dave (aka The Bardman) passed away on Saturday. His daughter phoned me early this morning.

The good natured bantering about the virtues of the Whites over the Garrett.

The down to earth level headiness in all things that are life.

Coffee at Tim's.

The long drives and conversations while going a digging.

The twinkle in his eyes everytime he saw a playing field or a road sign for a school.

Thursday at Sidelines with Raftaman, Leslie and the rest of the crew.

His favourite line. "I see Les your going around the field like a drunken sailor!"

These things I will miss. Can only hope that you are up in the big schoolyard above swinging away.

For those that knew him a bottomless void now exsists.<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b5d605b3127cce9392f03ed24b00000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center>

Sorry about the loss of your friend and treasure hunting buddy. That's why we must always remember to: TREASURE EACH DAY. (And that we find: TREASURE EACH DAY.)

His spirit still lives, and maybe it will point you in the direction of some great finds in the future. RIP Dave.
 

I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your friend. True friendships are so very rare and valuable, it sounds like you had the real deal with him - cherish those memories and find peace in knowing that his spirit is still with you. My condolences to his family as well. :(
