Not sure what to say?

Steve I´m sorry for your loss. It´s now up to you to represent that´s fine walker name.

I worked with Dave at Hartman T.V. & Appliances. We have been friends since the '70s. I loved his humor & enjoyed watching him sing and play the drums. We would go to WI and listen to one of my favorite Singer-Songwriters from Minocqua WI Tuck Pence. I will miss you Dave and am so sad to hear of your passing.

Lot of fond memories of Dave. Weekends on the river, attending Fatcat concerts, working together in 'Rent a Husband' handyman company. Shared many a laugh watching Tom and Jerry or The Roadrunner comedies. He helped me survive a divorce and keep my smile. Never completely lost touch even after moving away. Stopped in to see him a few months back, was shocked and saddened to hear of his condition but he was hopeful of finding a donor. His incredible humor and quick wit will be missed by many....

We have known Dave for a long time. He worked for me as a service advisor for a few years. He was always in a good mood and could make any situation funny. I think all of his friends will agree that their lives are better from knowing Dave. Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to all of you. RIP Mr. FAT CAT.

I'm so sorry to hear about Dave's passing. My whole family has a lot of great memories. I remember when my parents would make a big breakfast every Sunday morning. Dave would always show up just in time. He will be truly missed.

Steve, so sorry to learn of Dave´s passing. I had reconnected with Dave a few years ago on FB when he was selling Uncle Joe´s Jag. Many fine childhood memories from FCC to Dave, your dad and Joe Sr. and Jr. on Joe´s nice Formula on the River. Had no idea that he was so ill.

Our hearts are broken, Dave was an true friend to us and we will miss him so much. Our prayers with his family. Dave always made us laugh and he was very caring.

I was So Very Sad to hear about Dave's passing! My Heartfelt Condolences to Deb and Dave's Family! May you be Comforted by your memories of Dave! Much Love and many Prayers!

Dave, you were a great neighbor, musician, and most importantly, friend. I never failed to smile when I saw you, and you will be remembered fondly.
