He was a 1959 St. Joseph's High School graduate of Pittsfield, Massachusetts, proceeded to graduate summa cum laude with a BS degree in Business from the University of Niagara.

My childhood friend, and fellow graduate of St. Joseph High. We left Pittsfield in the fall of 1959 for Niagara University. Dave and I roomed together for those four years and he was super easy to live with. Remained close friends over these many years. His like are always missed. This one is a very tough loss.
