Councillor Dave Horan: a Tribute from Kelly Street
Submitted by Anonymous on Fri, 2010-09-24 13:05.On behalf of residents of Kelly Street, NW1, I would like to add a further tribute to Dave Horan. Our pretty little street is overlooked by the massive BT/Monteray tower and yard, and over there years, there have been times when when BT has seemed more bullying than neighbourly. Dave was always Kelly Street’s champion, our David, if you like, to the telecommunications giant’s Goliath; steadfast, polite yet firm. We now live amicably with our powerful neighbour whose officers, at last, listen to our views. This is enormously thanks to Dave Horan’s persistence. The residents of Kelly Street are saddened to hear our fair, decent, hard working champion is no more.
Personally, as someone who witnessed Dave’s quiet power on several occasions, I would like to add my own appreciation of everything he did for us and to express great sadness at the news of his passing.
