The funeral of the late David (Dave) Bradbury, LFB Retd.

​On Friday 8th November, the group were proud to be able to support the family at the funeral of former Middlesex, Buckinghamshire and finally London Fireman Dave Bradbury at the service which took place in the Isleworth area of West London.
240fLM had made its way around the M25 to meet another fine old restored and preserved appliance, 1 AMX, a former Middlesex Dennis F12 appliance which had spent many years at the old Staines Fire Station and which Dave had ridden many times.
240FLM, accompanied by 1 AMX, carried Dave to the South West Middlesex Crematorium at Hanworth, where, on arrival, a guard of honour of serving firefighters from Heston Fire Station, The London Fire Brigade and Retired Members Association Flag bearers, (a role which Dave had undertaken for many years), was on parade and accompanied by a large gathering of friends, family and former colleagues.
Dave started his Firefighting career during his National Service in the Army Fire Service. On leaving, he joined Middlesex Fire Brigade serving at Heston. On formation of the London Fire Brigade in 1965, he transferred briefly to Buckinghamshire Fire Brigade, before re joining the LFB back at Heston.
