Subject: RE: R.I.P Dave Hickey (McGinty band Nova Scotia)
I was truly saddened to hear of Dave's passing. Even if I hadn't seen him and the boys for months, or sometimes years, he would always shout out "Hey Karen!" when he saw me. I remember how he and Donnie and Bob bailed us out at the JL Illsley Winter Prom 1972 when we booked a band for the wrong night and they offered to play for the "angry mob" dressed in their finest.
I'd like to think that he and Tommy Makem are sharing a bottle of something tasty to warm their hearts over on the other side.
