Thank you for this!

I'm really keen to track down the children of David. I only have their first names, and as they're most likely still alive I don't think I can post them on here?  ???

Bramble, Perhaps you could let us know what you were hoping to discover which is not already on your previous thread

No you can't post the daughters names on here. None were noted as deceased on Pamela's 2012 death notice.

I note that Pamela's death was in 2012.  You could try the funeral director who may have information re the daughter/s as I would assume that one of them dealt with the funeral arrangements.  Some funeral directors can be very helpful - others do not even respond to queries but at least it's worth a try.

The contact for Tobin Brothers (Frankston branch) is in the Funeral Notice which Cando gave you (Reply #8).
