Really sorry to hear this news.
I haven't met many of you lot in person but we have all been on this list for a
fairly long time now and in some weird digital way we all sort of know bits
about each other.
Rest in Peace Dave.

Subject: [LU] Dave Dowden.
Dear all,
Quite a few of you will know that lister and member of the Leeds Lards worldnet
team, Dave 'Lido' Dowden has been ill with cancer this past two years. His
illness finally got the better of him late on Sunday night. He was at home with
his family having turned what was a six month assessment into two very full
years.
Those of you who knew Dave would know that he was a devoted Leeds fan but there
was so much more to him. He was a munroist, he enjoyed cycling, and took an
active part in politics in Pudsey. In recent years he was a leading light in
the Pudsey Greenside Greenway project. He also liked a good fire!
A committed traveller, there were few places he had not visited and anyone who
shared those trips will confirm that they were always er, eventful. He made
many of the matches abroad during our most recent European campaigns and quite
a few of us shared those trips. (Anyone going to the Barca game will remember
him and Chris Fitz staying above a sex shop which they were convinced was run
by nuns).
I can not begin to list all the adventures, stories and mishaps he was involved
in (he was short of a big toe after an accident with a lawn mower). One thing I
can say is they were many. Maybe one day someone will collect them.
Anyway, he now joins the other listers in the great list retirement home in the
sky. Dave was a one off and will never be forgotten.
Betty
