I´m sorry for your loss. I am a good friend of Tova Moonay and used to spend time with David during holidays and Shabbat dinners. David was always a good partner for a meaningful conversation and had a good sense of Humor. With you in heart

I met David several years ago in the lunch area of a local Wegmans that I frequented. I noticed him always reading. Eventually we talked and had a mutual fond interest in human psychology. I honestly could not get enough of his knowledge. He tried so hard to help me to understand things that I had questions about. He always acted out of kindness. He was such a pleasure to be around. Always in control and gentlemanly he was. He taught me a lot. I just hope that he learned from me too! ...

I´m so very sorry to learn of David´s passing. I will always remember his friendly smile and kind ways. My condolences to all the family.

In the disney movies that I grew up with, step-relatives were often portrayed as wicked and cruel. David was nothing but kind to me and my family, and we nicknamed him my Good Step-grandfather. ...
