2015 memorabilia

Tribute to the late Davo Williams

WA surfing legend Dave Williams passed away 18 May 2015 after an illness. His funeral service and ‘celebration of life’ wake took place at the North Beach Rugby Club at North Beach on Friday 29th May. After the service, family and friends reminisced and farewelled Davo with a release of balloons in his favourite colour into the sky and an open mic session that reminded all his renowned larikin sense of humour.

WA surfing pioneer Jim Keenan sent me this slideshow tribute to the late Dave Williams.

Jim KeenanThe content is not all surfing but is a pointer to how our social lives blended with surfing. I do not want to appear selfish re other contributions to SDS, but those early days were the creation of Yallingup and Margs which is now renowned.”
