My thoughts and Prayers go out to brother Bill and the entire Molloy family. I have known David for many years and often saw and spoke with him at daily Mass at St Anne's, St Mary's and St Joseph Churches. He was a warm, friendly, and caring person. He missed his wife Kathy immensely. I will remember David during my daily Prayers and offer up many Masses for him.
David will be forever missed but not forgotten. Jim Gibney
