R.I.P David Jackson
Today David Jackson from Bray Co. Wicklow passed away after a battle with cancer.
Dave and I joined Blue Funnel in December 1964 and sailed as Deck Boys together, he came from Bray, Co. Wicklow in Eire and he was the first person I met in Birkenhead, we went through training together and sailed together,he will be sadly missed by all his Family and Friends.
R.I.P Dave.
