Hi Pat and Donohoe family

I am so saddened to hear of Dave´s passing. Dave was my landlord in Woburn for many years. Inside his hardened Marine Corp exterior was a very kind and gentle man who would give you the shirt off his back. His quick wit always kept me laughing, regardless of what kind of day I was having.
Dave will be sorely missed down here on earth, but Heaven just gained a great one. God bless you Dave.
