Not sure what to say?

So blessed to have had Dave and Barb attend our wedding this past May. Eternally thankful for your friendship with my husband- your partner Jorgie.

Dave, thank you for welcoming Jorge and I into your life as if we were one of your own children. An inspiration to many, your achievements inspired us to aim higher and never settle for mediocre. Out of all the golf courses you played with Jorge, Century Village will always mean the most to your partner and the story of how you met will live on forever. We shared many laughs at our countless dinners that will be cherished eternally. Dave and Barb, we cannot thank you enough for your help in...

Thank you Dave and Barb for sharing your gifts of hospitality and generosity to so many family and friends over the years. You are loved!

Dave - I always enjoyed being around you be it on a golf course, in a clubhouse, at a luncheon, or in Arizona. You were my favorite hybrid (Buckeye / Wolverine) ,and although you may have had your main allegiance reversed, you handled that conflict with class and grace as you did with all challenges. Your many, many friends will certainly miss you. My deepest condolences to Barb and your lovely family.

Barb, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Monica Suchyta and Charmaine Wawrzyniec.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

David, may God bless you and Barbara, an inspiration and joy to so many. Your 25 years of devotion to the Van Patrick Memorial and the Foundation led to the endowment of the Van Patrick Chair in Oncology at Henry Ford Hospital. How proud you were when Dr. Chapman would describe what the funding had helped accomplish. Your work quietly assisted thousands in the fight against cancer.

I recall our many beautiful moments together both on and off the golf course. The adventure of trips...

Dave, Although I only had the pleasure of your friendship for a few years, you had priorities lined up perfectly. Thank you for sharing time with me. Barb, Kim and the family, we are very sorry for your loss, he was a great man!!

David, may God Bless you and your family. You were the consummate class act and Ill always remember and cherish our 1994 DCC Derby Day playoff. Rest In Peace my friend.

So sorry to hear of Daves passing. I worked at the Dearborn office at NBD/Chase with Dave. He was a great guy. My deepest sympathy and prayers for the family.
