Beloved husband of Carolina Roe, adored and devoted father, cherished son, brother and loyal friend.

David’s warmth, strength and generous spirit touched the lives of many. He brought colour, laughter and light into every room he entered, and his absence leaves a space that can never be filled.

A celebration of David’s life will be held at Tauranga Adventist Church, 25 Moffat Road Tauranga, on Friday 20th February 2026 at 6:00pm.

In honour of the colour and warmth he brought into our world, we invite you to wear colour — black is optional.
Let’s fill the room with love, laughter, stories and light, just as he would have wanted.

You are warmly invited to bring a plate of food to share after the service as we gather together in remembrance.

Forever loved. Forever in our hearts.
