We will all miss his big smile
From the Wagners

I'm sorry for your loss. I worked at Kaiser and always enjoyed seeing him at his appointments. He was so kind and friendly. Treasure all the wonderful memories, as I will.

I just heard today of Dave's death . You are all in my thoughts and prayers. I have so many happy memories of Dave and all of you. I remember wanting benches in the school patio and Dave made it happen. He is part of so many memories of OLA, my all time favorite place. Love to all of you.

My condolences to the entire Leatherby family. Dave was a wonderful person and great neighbor. We'll miss his friendly greetings and chats on his daily bike ride through the neighborhood.

Sally, you and I were friends from elementary school onward through our whole lives. You were always an example of serenity, calm, and kindness. You are in my prayers during Dave's service this morning, and I know that your friends, your family, and your faith will give you strength.

Dave and I were together and playing football from grade school, to middle school, to high school, and to collage.
Of all the thousands of people I have met - I have never met anyone like Dave. He was one of a kind - I do not think he met anyone that did not love him.

So sorry for your loss Sally and family I will always remember Dave. We met in 6th grade always had that great smile.
Your friend always SAILOR thats the name he tag me with.

Prayers for the Leatherby family. I know how much this hurts. My parents went on their first of 67 cruises with Dave and Sally back in the 70's. Such a kind, funny, spiritual man. We were Blessed to have known him.
Hope he is having a wonderful reunion with his family and my parents in Heaven.
God Bless all of you.
