In choosing to retire here, he was struck by thecombination of hills and loch and the wonderful naturalscenery.And so began Dave’s long association with Kinnesswood inBloom and his substantial part in mapping out andimplementing the significant developments with the othercommunity volunteers.His professional navalbackground characterisedDavid in every possible wayand he was a man with theenergy, organisation andcommitment to see a visionthrough, working with andmotivating others.From his organisation ofworking parties to hisdynamic strimming; orrejuvenating the tiredAcknowledgementsDave Goodwin, of Kinnessw oodlettering on the war memorial before doing another littlestint in the Michael Bruce cottage garden; or nipping alongto cut some grass; or be ready for the watering parties, hemade his commitment to the village absolute.His was a tireless energy that is to be seen throughout thevillage, taking a generous pride in ownership andparticipation with community projects and no-one was morethrilled than Dave at the success of the village in all of thelocal and national competitions.He is missed by Carole and all of his children and grandchildren.He is missed for that wry smile and laugh at the garage.He is missed daily by everyone in the village and everyonewho worked with him in all the hard work over the last fewyears helping to make Kinnesswood a pleasanter place tolive.If there is a celestial garden, we know that he will beinvolved, but they better be sure they don’t miss their turnon the watering rota!Kinnessswood in BloomCommittee and VolunteersSTIRLING – Peter Stirling and Margaret McCartneywould like to thank people for all the cards and expressionsof sympathy received on the recent death of their fatherPeter Stirling, formerly of Montgomery Street.SZAFINSKI – Janina and Gordon Clunie would like tothank everyone who sent flowers, cards and letters on thesad loss of Janina’s brother Tony (Szafinski) who passedaway on Sunday 12 July 2009.
