Council pays tribute to friend and colleague

It is with great sadness and broken hearts we share the news that yesterday, Arun District Council lost a wonderful friend and colleague to the virus.

Dave Thompson worked in the Arun District Council Revenues and Benefits team for almost 23 years. He was a highly valued and respected member of staff, but more importantly was a friend to so many.

Dave was a kind and gentle man. He had a huge love for life, he accepted everyone he met for who they were and always had a smile to share.

Dave passed away after a seven-week battle with the virus. His wife and son were by his side. He will leave a huge hole in so many lives, such was the positive impact he had on all who had the honour to know him.

We are flying the flag at the civic centre at half mast to honour Dave’s memory. Our love and sincere condolences go to Dave’s loved ones at this time.
