It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of David Lapidus on Saturday, 5 July, 2025, aged 84.

David was a devoted husband to Pat, a much-loved father, and a loyal friend to many. He will be remembered for his quiet strength, generous spirit, and unwavering love for his family.

A passionate rugby man throughout his life, David’s enthusiasm for the game was matched only by his dedication to the causes he cared about. He was a proud and long-standing supporter of the Variety Club Jersey, giving his time and energy over many years to help improve the lives of children in need.

David touched the lives of all who knew him, through his warmth, integrity, and his ever-present sense of humour. His legacy is one of kindness, community, and love.
