Not sure what to say?

I sincerely apologize that I have failed any attempt at writing here until present. I´ve never had the pleasure of meeting Dave, only met his wife Carol when I visited his SF residence to give her a letter for him. I investigated the Zodiac case and my letter concerned my interview of Leigh Allen at his home back in the late 80´s. I´m Craig in Robert Graysmith´s Zodiac Unmasked. I´d love to have spoken to Dave to discuss the things I was able to learn but I suppose he´d had enough of the...

His legacy lives on. So glad we inducted you into the Galileo Hall of Merit while you were still alive. RIP, Dave.

I was sorry to see this announcement on the passing of David Toschi. Thank you Mr. Toschi for serving our country in the US Army with the 24th Infantry Division, known as "Taro Division" or the "Victory Division", and for providing service with compassion and integrity as a Police Officer to the city and citizens of San Francisco. Every time I eat Animal Crackers or watch Bullitt, I'll remember you Mr. Toschi. Requiescat In Pace.

Dear Carol & Family,

I was so sorry to hear of David's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Warmly,

I went to high school with, and was good friends with his daughter, Karen. (Linda was a couple of years ahead of us). I visited the home many times and would chat with him whenever I was shopping at Home Yardage, where he worked security.
To Karen and family, my sincerest condolences. I am so sorry for your loss. May he rest in peace.

My condolences to the family of Dave Toschi. I remember him introducing himself to me when I was a new officer in the SFPD. I think it was the Italian heritage because he used to say we had to stick together. RIP,my friend

My condolences. I am very sorry for your loss. I have nothing but fond memories of him and the whole family.

My condolences to Carol and her family. I am glad we were able to induct Dave in the Galileo Hall
of Merit in 2016. He will be missed.

During the 1970's I worked at a fabric store in San Francisco called Home Yardage. While still an officer on the San Francisco police homicide detail, David did security at the store on the side. David was a really nice man and I always enjoyed talking with him about the goings on in San Francisco. I also happen to remember Linda who worked in the store. My condolences to her and the family.
