The Members, Officers, and Parliamentarians of the Progressive Labour Party are saddened to learn of the passing of Mr Davis Tannock. We offer our sympathies and condolences to his family during their time of mourning.

Mr Davis Tannock was the son of Mr John Tannock and Mrs Alice Tannock of Cedar Hill, Warwick. In April 1968, Mr Tannock ran as a PLP candidate for Smith’s North. Mr Tannock was a lifetime member and continued his involvement in the party long after running by supporting numerous PLP candidates who followed him and ran in Smith’s Parish even when the prospect of victory was slim.

Mr Tannock was a tradesman and owned his own plumbing company Davis Tannock Plumbing. He was also a notable member of the Bermuda Industrial Union and served in various capacities including Vice-President of the Plumbing & Construction Division.

Mr Tannock leaves behind his wife, Marie and five children Patrick, Mark and Theresa Tannock, Cheri Adcock and Anthony Tannock.

To his friends, family and loved ones, we extend our deepest sympathies.
