Although I did not spend a lot of time with Dave, when I did, he made you feel like you were the best friend he ever had. Such a truly wonderful man will be missed terribly. Condolences to his wife and family, and may his smile greet us when the Hour of Eleven tolls for us all.

You were a dear friend and neighbor and we are going to miss you greatly.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you Joan, Amy & Evan.

Joan, Amy and the entire Stratton Family,
May your fondest memories bring you comfort.
Sincerely sorry for your loss. Hugs to all.

Mrs Stratton and family,

you and your entire family are in our thoughts and prayers.

Our hearts go out to the Stratton family.

Joan and family....Dave was loved and will be missed. We are sharing our memories and smiling, grateful to have been a small part of his life! We love you, Dave and Di
