David Mascaro

Gone too soon. A fine man. My next door neighbor & shared many chats on our front steps.

Dear Gail, For the past several years I've been trying to contact David (my cousin). Yesterday I had the bright idea to try Facebook. I'm not Social Media savvy and was surprised when his name popped up. Then, of course, shocked to learn of his death.
David's father and mine (George Mascaro) were brothers. I was close with his mom and spent many hours with her at their home in Mount Vernon. She was a wise and sweet woman and a great mentor to me.

So sorry to hear about David. He was a wonderful person. We were high school friends, and he spent many afternoons teaching me how to draw hands. He will be missed.

Gail, I was so sorry to hear about David. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

David, you were one of a kind and will be dearly missed. Rest in peace my friend.

Gail you are in my prayers. May you find some piece in knowing how many people loved David.

Because of Dave's insistent pestering that I take a Daniel Green workshop, a whole new world opened up for me. I left a solid career as a medical illustrator to become a fine artist specializing in portraits.

What a terrific artist and great teacher he was! And in recent years, he also became my good friend and mentor. I always felt privileged to be in his company and receive the benefit of his friendship and his advice. It is hard to believe he is gone. Deep and sincere condolences to Gail.

Dave was a great friend for over 60 years his great talent, warm and generous spirit will be missed. All of his old friends from Newton, Ma extend our love to Gail and his family.
