BUESNEL, David

Our dear brother Dave passed away on Wednesday, 19 June, 2024, following a long bout with cancer.

He was a proud father to Emma and Abbie and loved all of his ‘Aussie’ grandchildren.

As a brother Dave will be greatly missed, his briliant sense of humour enriched many family gatherings, his ‘joie de vivre’ made him popular with all he met and we will always think of him with much love and affection.

Ruth, Linda, Janet, Peter and the late Ray xxx.

BUESNEL, David

You have been taken away from us far too young.

You are now free from pain and are at peace. We know in our hearts that Bren was waiting for his beloved Grandpa up above.

Our hearts are broken and we will miss you so much.

Thanks for being a loving Dad and Grandpa.

Forever in our hearts.

Your loving daughters Emma and Abbie and our families.
