Not sure what to say?

Dr. David Sime was a good friend of my family on Allendale. His parents lived next door and used to play Big Band Music for my parents ERNIE AND BUNNY. my mother used to play doubles tennis with Betty Sime at the Sonesta. I used to play soccer with Scott Sime at the old key biscayne soccer field with Coach Ralph Foster and his muscle car 400 big block Grand Am. We would go to the Beach Basket and see EGG in his office. how I loved Florida.

He used to live on on the Key and was our Opthamologist for almost 30 years. We were his last patients on the dayy he retired.

Dr Sime was our Ophthalmologist from 1978 until he retired. We were his last patients on his last day he retired. We knew him & his family from Key Biscayne where where we lived for almost 30 years. He is missed and remembered.

Very sad today to hear of Davids passing. What an unbelievable athlete, and a wonderful man, and an amazing tennis player. Played against him many lunchtimes at La Gorce Country club. My deepest condolences to all the Family

God placed him in my life that day for a reason so Dave thank you for that.Your legacy will remain for...

Ileana, our sympathies go out to you and your family. Dave was a wonderful man and a very good friend. We will sorely miss his passion, humor and friendship. You remain in our thoughts and prayers.

I have known Dave Sime, his dad, Chuck and his mom, Evelyn since the 5th grade in school dating back to 1946. We were part of a small group of friends who played sports,spent time at our family homes and generally "hung out" together. We all went through school together in Fairlawn and kept in touch when school was over. When Dave moved to Miami in 1963, we spent a lot of time together, like spending Hurricane Cleo in 1964 at our house in Miramar, helped him move to Key Biscayne and took his...
