Not sure what to say?

Terri and family,
Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers in this very difficult time. Dave was truly a shinning light and I know his spirit will live on with you and your family.
Take care,
Leslie Shumann

I was lucky enough to work across the table from Dave for 10 years. He wasn't always the easiest to negotiate with but he was always fair and once the deal was signed we would talk and catch up like no time had passed. He's a great man gone way too soon. My deepest condolences to all of his family & friends.

Dear Teri, Emma and Ryan,
You have my sympathy and prayers at the passing of your husband and father, Dave. Dave Booth was always cheerful, respectful and professional. Dave will be missed for all his leadership our community; and, we will especially miss this good man for all his kindness and generosity toward others. Rest in peace, Dave.

I did not get a chance to really get to know Dave like others did at WXOW but the conversations I did have with Dave were always positive and you could tell that he really cared for everyone at the station. His occasional walk throughs into the newsroom always brought a smile to someone’s face. He simply put was Mr. WXOW/WQOW. My deepest condolences to the Booth family.

Dave & I worked together at KOLN/KGIN back in the late 80s. He was a great team mate & helped me a lot. He also willingly shared his insights with me in later years in regards to potential career decisions! Prayers for the Booth Family!

Teri, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Dear Teri, Emma, and Ryan-

I am so sad and heartbroken for you to be experiencing this. My heart, prayers and thoughts are with you all. I have been keeping you close to my heart since we first learned of Dave’s illness. I so wish I could be there in person. Much love to you All!

Teri...I am deeply saddened by your loss. May God bless you and your family and God bless his soul. David was always very good to me and I appreciated that!!!
