Dave always took us out to really nice birthday dinners but when it was our turn to buy we always ended up at Tim Hortons!! He used to laugh about this often. I love and miss him and I wish we had a little more time.

Our Darling Brother Dave
You were many things to many people who loved you. For me, two words come to mind for you: Strength and gentleness: you were strong and unmoveable in your determination, but so gentle in your manner and caring of the people you loved. You never forgot a special occasion with special cards-and you cared enough to send only the very best! we are so thankful that we did get a chance on Tuesday morning with a few family members present, to say good-bye to you, to...

Love, Carolyn(Hunter)Uzzardo & Joe xoxo

Hunter reunion 2008 Dave with Gord, Diane and Dennis

Words cannot describe the feelings of grief and shock when someone you love as much as Uncle Dave, is taken so suddenly and unexpectedly. I speak also for my wife Carol and our two daughters Sandy and Erin.

This changed however, over twenty years ago when we struck up a friendship that grew with time.
My mother Catherine had always kept in contact with Dave as a mentor, being...

Dear Uncle Dave, Other than exchanging Christmas cards,& talking to you on the phone,I never had the pleasure of meeting you.You are a sweet dear man & we all love you more than you know! Our thoughts & prayers are with you always! Donna(Hunter)Ryan & familyxoxo
