My wife started going to Dr DeMalo when he first opened his practice, I also went at times, my wife got really sick and he came to our home to treat my wife, Dr Dave was always smiling and did a wonderful job, he was a true professional but most of all he was a great guy, We were shocked when we heard this, so young. So Dr Dave Merci for looking after us and sorry to see you go. May you be blessed and rest in peace.

We knew Dave as our chiropractor but over time, there was an imperceptible change, and we became friends. That’s how it was with Dave.

Dave always had time. There was always a quick story to share or a catchup between appointments. He always wanted to know how you were and always asked about family and friends. He genuinely was interested and cared.

You just had to read all the notes he had in his office to see how highly regarded he was and how he was held in such esteem.

He will be so very much missed but there is no doubt that his spirit and legacy will endure.

I am saddened by the news. I remember Dave as a fun and friendly guy; a team player who always had a smile on his face. He was a year ahead of me at Westacres, AAM and Graydon. Friends of ours raved about his chiropractic services. My condolences to your family.
