David Wotherspoon was a remarkable man. After 20 years in the Army, he became an Anglican priest. We met him at St Ursula's Berne in 1993. He converted me from Presbyterian to Anglican, with a passionate devotion to God. I never met a man who drank like a fish, smoked like a train, and preached like there was no tomorrow. We'll miss you David.
