Death of Dave Courtney, a Larger than Life Character

We are saddened to report the passing of Dave Courtney, a larger than life character who lived on his own terms. Dave, aged 64, breathed his last on the evening of October 22, 2023, leaving behind a legacy that will be remembered for years to come.

Born on February 17, 1959, in Bermondsey, South London, Dave Courtney was known for his colorful personality and his involvement in the criminal underworld. Despite his controversial reputation, he had a charismatic charm that captivated those who knew him.

Dave’s life was marked by numerous encounters with the law. He was involved in various criminal activities, including armed robbery and debt collection. His name became synonymous with the London gangster scene, and he was often referred to as the “self-proclaimed underworld king.”

However, in recent years, Dave had turned his life around and became an author and actor, using his experiences to entertain and educate others. He wrote several books, including his autobiography “Stop the Ride, I Want to Get Off,” which provided a glimpse into his life and the criminal world he was a part of.

Dave’s larger than life personality extended beyond his criminal endeavors. He was known for his distinctive appearance, with his slicked-back hair, sharp suits, and gold jewelry. He had a unique sense of humor and was always ready with a witty remark that could light up a room.

Despite his controversial past, Dave was beloved by many. He was known for his generosity and willingness to help those in need. He often used his platform to raise money for various charities and support local community initiatives.

Dave Courtney’s passing leaves a void in the London underworld and the entertainment industry. His legacy will be remembered as a testament to a life lived on his own terms, with all its triumphs and challenges.

We extend our condolences to Dave’s family and friends during this difficult time. May he rest in peace..
