Not sure what to say?

My dear Rita and family
So very sorry to learn of Dave's passing.

Seems sometimes only yesterday that we were all so young with all our families at those Sears cookout and gatherings and how great friends the guys all were at the store.

Please know you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Marilyn Borsare

David and I were close "BUDDIES" while together in the NAVY on the USS Salamonie AO26. At first David and I were like oil and water. He was a good old southern boy and I was a Yankee. But we hit it off. The interesting part was when I brought him home with me on a weekend pass to meet my wife Veronica. He was introduced to Veronica's Sister and that's when it all began. I guess you could say Love at first sight.
Anyway he was a great friend and buddie. I will miss him dearly
Rest in...
