Today I lost my best friend and my hero.The most wonderful human being I have ever known.
I’m so proud of him.
He was GB mile champion and represented his country in two Olympic games but to me he was just “Dad”. I will miss him so very much and I will love him forever 💘 pic.twitter.com/TkpaJasnSL— Bobby Davro (@BobbyDavro1) January 8, 2021
Whenever I was with him and he was introduced to anyone as “This is Bill Nankeville he’s Bobby Davro’s father” I was always proud to say “No…I’m Bobby Davro and I’m Bill Nankeville’s son!”
Sleep well dad. I love you to the moon and back” ❤ x pic.twitter.com/DYHG21Z0UM— Bobby Davro (@BobbyDavro1) January 8, 2021
The wonderful Bill Nankeville. A charming man and a supreme athlete. Happy memories of the day at Walton on Thames Cricket Club in 2019. It was a pleasure and an honour to meet him. May he rest in peace and rise in glory. Thinking of you, Bobby. https://t.co/ntDjAP37ka https://t.co/MRVY0XL7Zj
