His good friends Diane and Michael Croft had this to say:
"Dave Clarkson, who was a longstanding club member from the sixties to the seventies, has died in Banbury. Those who knew him can remember him leading the barbershop style of singing for which the club was famous (notorious). He was club secretary I believe for quite a time. His wife and I did rugby dinners for years it seems.
His funeral is at Banbury Crematorium at 1pm on the 24th May."
