Memories and Condolences

Not sure what to say?





What a lovely, kind, sweet person Dave was. He was my very first and only insurance agent since I was a kid of 19 yrs old (29 yrs he was my agent)Liked him right away and stuck with him. Always looked out for me in a real, caring way -- not just to get business. One of the most genuine people I have known. He is missed greatly!

Dave will be missed as a friend and the best agent ever. He handled all my insurance needs for more than 43 years.
We had a nice conversation a few days before his passing. Dave was a class act and a good man. RIP Dave.
