Not sure what to say?

Mona, my deepest condolences to you at this sad time. Dave was such a great guy. He will be greatly missed.

I have many good memories of Dave cruising through the Hut in his red Impala convertible -- also of him selling ice cream bars from his Cushman motorbike at Devil's Lake. And always, that big grin!
Best regards to Dave's family.

Dave was the only one who could get away with calling me "kid"! A great Blade colleague, Dave and I would often salivate during discussion of vehicles. Dave was a man of grace and style. My heart felt condolences to his lovely wife, Mona, and the rest of his family.

Very sad to say goodbye to another friend from the DeVilbiss Class of 1960.....!!!! You will be missed!!!! Condolences to the family!!!

God bless you Mona during this difficult time. We will all miss Dave.

I grew up hearing all the stories of you and my Dad and your adventures in your cool cars. I am glad that as an adult I was able to get to know you and Mona and see for myself what a fun and loving man you were. Myself and my family will truly miss you but your sweet smile will always be in our memory.

You were my favorite cousin. I remember you always love and admiration. Chuck Berger

You will be missed
