We will miss you very much uncle Dave. The family BBQ's won't be the same without you. You know your the only one who knew how to BBQ good. I miss helping you in the kitchen making gravey and everything else you were making for us that day. Thank you for being apart of all of our lives. We will always remember you and all the wonderful pictures you took of all of us. Those are memories that you gave to us and we'll never forget about you.Our prayers are with you Auntie and family.

Uncle Dave was a kind and loving person. He gave his love to Auntie Yolanda and his family and it showed! He always had a welcoming smile and delicious BBQ. Recently, I sat with Uncle Dave during a luncheon and I recall how genuine and thoughtful he was. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends. We will miss you Uncle Dave. Love, the Bess family.

I met David while working at Rocketdyne in Simi Valley. Over the years, we worked on various projects together. I enjoyed working with him and his company broght joy to sometimes boring times at work. He was a very good man and co worker. I will miss him dearly.

I really don't know what to say about Uncle David except that he was and always will be a great man and it was my honor to have known him. I know i wasn't really family, but was always treated as a member when around him. Will miss the great BBQ's we always had. My condolences to all the family especially Auntie(Yolanda). I am sorry i could not be there to pay my respects in person. Hope you can open that other bottle of Pinot in heaven Uncle Dave. I will truly miss you.
Love and...

We will miss Uncle David. Looking at the BBQ will never be the same. He was a great man that loved our Aunt Yolanda and our cousins dearly. Our condolences to all of his family especially his son and daughter. He was way too young and had too much more life to live. RIP Uncle David!!
Love, Davina, Jason and Mason
