Dave Evans 10/11/66 to 01/03/08
Dave was diagnosed with Metastatic cancer of the oesophagus on 21/08/07 and given 9/12 months to
live.
We never gave up; we couldn't, trying all sorts of alternative plus conventional treatments. Dave
did fantastic till Christmas which was important as our three young boys Charlie, Max and Harvey
loved like all kids and adults Christmas.
We managed to get away to Tenerife for New Year but things weren't the same, Dave slept a lot and
struggled to eat, drink and enjoy the sun and pool with us. Still I didn't believe Dave’s life was
going to be cut so short.
After a few stays in hospital Dave was desperate to get home to "his boys" on Friday 29th February
2008 Dave came home confused and weak. Saturday 1st March I could not wake him, called his boys to
come and say goodbye to there dad, a thing that no 8, 6 and 3 year old should do.
Dave fell asleep surrounded with the love of his family on St David’s Day, Dave obviously had a
high opinion of himself!
Dave grew up in Cheadle Hulme and was always life and soul of everything going on.
I Debbie met and married Dave in 1993 - we nearly made it to 15 years babe. We have been blessed
with three gorgeous boys whom are walking doubles of there dad.
Dave had fitting tributes on his funeral delivered by his brother, father-in-law, and four close
friends, music played and I imagined you dancing on a table joining in. Cheadle Hulme came to a
stand still and as your son Max stood up in front of all and said "my dad is the best, we love him
loads and miss him" there wasn't a dry eye about.
Dave you have gone from our lives but will remain in our hearts and memories forever, life seems so
cruel and unfair. We love you and hope to see you again big kisses and cuddles from me and our boys

I feel like i need a sign dave, just to know you're still around.
You're grandma needs you to guide her, in which ever way you see fit.
Thanks for watching over bob.
Dave, the pain of lossing you is still hard to bere, especially when i need you to help me, be with me, or just a cuddle, i miss that most of all. Our boys are a bloody handful so difficult by myself. I shouldn't moan as i know you would just wish to be here listening to the noise.
You are the bravest person i've ever known, i just wish it didn't happen to you.
Watch over us bunny bear love you millions x x x x
1 year on
what a year, well 18 mths. I still can't believe its happened. When will it sink in? a friend recently said 'you never get over it, just learn to live with it.
Davey, on st davids day, i'll be in goa, charlie at wembley and max and harvey willbe being spoilt by my mum and yours.Watch over us all x.
I've spent the week reliving last year, we'd just watch 'harry potter' with the boys. I never imagined it would be your last night.
I don't know whats happened to family and friends, its all gone pear shaped. i just wish they'd be grateful for what they have, its so precious.
Bunny bear, i love and miss you millions, i wish with all my heart you could be here, i'd give everything up for you to be back with me and our boys.
love, cuddles and kisses stay close to us dave, deb and boys x x x x x
new year
hi davey, i haven't been on GTS for a while but as you know i haven't stopped talking to you.
Well we did it, we got through our first christmas without you. We did things slightly different, which helped, the boys kept me going and a brave face was put on. but, its just another day without you.
Life is going by, and i'm trying to remember you before you where ill, as you came through stella and told me off for having bad memories and not remembering YOU. Which ofcourse i do who could ever forget you.
Time for bed so please come to me in my dreams love you billions deb x x x x
Cristmas Wishes
We all went out on Friday, big drink! We all did a toast to an absent friend at the start of the night..
Still feels so un-real to all the Lads, truth is at times like this, your passing is always thought about
and you will be missed forever.
All the best to you and your family at this time.
I wish I could think of more to say to make you all laugh and be happy. Like you would of made the lads laugh and be happy if you were with us in body again on Friday. Sleep well Mate.
derby day
hi davey, well its derby day, and you'd love it city v united followed by the london derby, i wouldn't see you today, would i?
Me and the kids have just been to mill lane, all the flowers are frozen but it still looks good.
Charlie has had an early christmas pesent from marcus, his season ticket for the derby. Hes put his united shirt under his hoody as hes in the blue end.
I've packed him off with a tissue, as hes very like you and can get very upset if the result doesn't go his way.
well dave its nine months since you were taken from us and although it seems a lifetime, i still feel like its yesturday that you were at your best.
I'm sure you'll be watching the match but don't ever forget i miss you with all my heart its so unfair x x x x
Happy Birthday Dave
Just wanted to say that i'm thinking about you Dave and thinking about Deb and your boys even more...
Although Birthdays & Anniv's are marked as days of rememberance when you love someone and they are taken from you every day is a day of rememberance. Please look after Debbie and let her feel your strong arms around her tonight whilst she drifts off to sleep and visit her to let her know you are around, use Teddy to play with the electrics cos he's good at that.
Please take extra care of yourself Debbie and know that everyone is thinking of you and your babies with Love.
