Dave was such a kind and honest person. He worked hard and loved his family. A friend from school and the last few years I was lucky enough to have talked with him often as he did some landscaping for me and my husband. We will remember you Dave as we look at the beautiful garden you build for us in our back yard and patio. Rest in peace! Michelle Lariviere
