And his late friend Mick.. Meade family.

I met David two years ago at my brother Mick Meade,s funeral. I had not seen him for years. He made the trip from Clare to Stradbally Co Laois to pay his respects. Him and Mick were pals back in Coolock long time ago. It was so nice to meet again. Am shocked to hear this sad news . From all of the Meade Family we offer our sincere condolences to his family.

I am grateful to have had the pleasure of meeting Dave, Dara and children while visiting Ireland from the states. What a wonderful family, my prayers go out to you all.

Shocked to hear of Daves untimely death. RIP.

Truely grateful to the dedication of Daithi : who was part of the team that rescued me from the sea in August 2015. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. No blossom dies without first having achieved its goal of glorifying God in His love and beauty. RIP

Thinking of David and his family, and Coastguard colleagues at this sad time. David was my section commander during my army recruit training way back in 1987/88, and I knew him well during his time in the Air Corps. Always the professional setting an example to all those who worked with him. Remember him always smiling - like a Cheshire Cat...
