I met Dave in 1989. Right from the outset I was charmed by his quick wit, his generosity and his boundless appetite for the good things in life. He exuded an irrepressible sense of enjoyment of the moment, drawing us into the revels, swept along while barely conscious of our collective elation. We were young and it was *fun*.

When I remember Dave I will think of those good times, his agreeable mischief, and the happiness he shared with those around him.

We are so very sorry and sad to hear of David's passing. As neighbours in Christchurch our families shared many happy times of fun and games and primary school days together. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of the Keppel family. From Marie, Lynne and Tracy (Shand)

I worked out the other day I have known Dave for over thirty years! I have so many fond memories of laughing together and having fun especially when we worked together at Wang. He will be sorely missed. Condolences to Maryan, Abby and Hannah and the rest of the family.
