A Man of Many Names Today we are here for one common purpose To celebrate a man who meant the world to us He was Christened Dave Smith at a very young age But let’s see what happens when we turn a page Smith became Biff as a Teddyboy teenager But it was Dave the Carpet when enjoying a wager Either on line or in the drive To make a living he did strive It wasn’t long before he was known As the Carpet Man who sold from home. To both his boys he was simply Dad The best mentor they could ever have had Affectionately known as Uncle Duncan by a few, A special man we’re all proud we knew By some he was known as Grandad Tibby By others just very simply dear old Smiffy His favourite tipple, a whisky he’d enjoy And oh so many we shared with you Fatboy Our wonderful Geggy it’s time to say goodnight God bless you Dave Smith, please sleep tight

Remembering fun times as a teenager with a brilliant group of friends at the Queens Head in Great Clacton. Lots of laughs and mischief.

Thank you for setting up this memorial to David. We hope that you find it a positive experience developing the site and that it becomes a place of comfort and inspiration for you to visit whenever you want or need to.
