Dave White, Yorkshireman and YCCC member, and former teaching colleague, died a few days ago. I feel the need to share the loss of a good friend. Whitey was completely fruit & nut, taught French, and could do the Guardian crossword in about 20 minutes. He and I were in Scarborough together when we won the Championship in 2001. He remarried quite late in life and leaves behind a lovely grown up daughter, Katie, who was in love with Darren Gough when she was little. Attachments:

At least Whitey was old...a few years older than me, as indeed was Alan Kaye, the 'ropeman' who died last year.

Thank you for sharing the loss of your former colleague and good friend Dave White. As I type this a speck of dust must have blown into my eye. It's clear that you have described Whitey with humour and a happy memory of a Cricket triumph with a fellow Yorkshire member. I'm sure for that reason alone Scarborough will also have a special meaning whenever you return to NMR .Take Care Dave.
