Joyce,
I am truly sorry about the passing of your husband. I did not know Dave well, but he seemed like a good, kind and loving man. That adored you and his family. You are in my thoughts and prayers in this difficult time.
God Bless You.

Joyce,
We are so sorry to hear about Dave. A flood of memories come back to me... from hanging out at the Gold-N-Glow (Clif working in the back, the rest of us trying to scrounge up a nickel for a donut and cup of coffee) to our Key Club trip to Chicago with Dave and I drinking martini's at the fancy Frank & Marie's Restaurant, and so many more. Just the greatest guy. Our sympathy to you and your family.

TO MR. BOGARDUS' FAMILY,
I WILL MISS SEEING HIM OUT IN THE YARD AND MISS HIS WAVE HELLO. IF YOU NEED ANYTHING JUST ASK.

To the family of Dave Bogardus,
I remember Dave from Sky Ranch when we were kids. Then Todd was in Cub Scouts with my nephew Trevor when my husband was Cub Master. Dave was always there supporting the scouting activities. Know that our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this time of bereavement.
Sincere sympathy,

Compassionate, loving, a heart as big as the world, my connections with my Uncle Dave always surprised me: reading the Clan of the Cave Bear series together...taking my son out to "talk to the truckers". To Joyce, Todd, Eric and families I send you my love and wish I could take the hurt away. He will be missed and thought of often.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.
