I offer my sincere condolences to his family, loved ones and colleagues. He will be missed.” Added former mayor Tim Jones: “Dave was a member of Council for all the right reasons – no axes to grind, wanted to serve his community and simply was happy to do his job. Dave was there to make the right decisions and voted his conscience.” By Brock WeirEditorLocal Journalism Initiative Reporter --------------------------------------------------- Images: --------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- Post date: 2022-02-03 19:24:38 Post date GMT: 2022-02-04 00:24:38 Post modified date: 2022-02-03 19:28:02 Post modified date GMT: 2022-02-04 00:28:02 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Export of Post and Page as text file has been powered by [ Universal Post Manager ] plugin from www.gconverters.com
