David grew up next to us on Lyman Terrace. It was many years before we reconnected - I left South Hadley right after High School. Tina and I visited him at Atkin's on one of our infrequent visits home. Aunt Dottie, you have our deepest condolences.

My sincere condolences to Dave's family and friends. I have a lot of great memories working with Dave and his team at Willits/MHC. I learned a lot from Dave, many of those things I now use daily in my second career as a chef/restaurateur. Rest easy my friend - I think of you often.

I knew Dave from working at Atkins Farms. I worked in the bakery and would visit Dave in the deli, usually needing something or a question answered. I was always met with a smile and how can I help. Dave was always helpful and fun to speak with at work. The last time I visited Atkins I received a big hug from Dave, I will cherish that last hug and say, RIP, my friend. Very sorry to his family for their loss.

So sorry to hear of David's passing. He's together with Lora again, the love of his life. I'll always remember growing up together and the Sunday picnics at Granpa's and later camping at Uncle Donald's in Vermont. Great memories with all the cousins. Our loving thoughts and prayers are with Auntie Dottie, Nancy, and Mary now.
