To Dave's family. So sorry for your loss. We enjoyed bowling with Dave in the Friendship Bowling league in Woburn. Frank enjoyed talking golf with Dave. Such a gentleman. Our deepest sympathy. Will keep Dave and the family in our prayers.

I was so sorry to hear of Mr. Fields passing. As a friend of Adam's during high school, he was always so kind to me and was a happy and good person. He was mischievous, too: one day after I had furiously looked in vain for my favorite sweatshirt from Bentley, Dave walked in wearing it, laughing and holding his ever-present cup of coffee. He shrugged and said, "it's so comfortable!" I let him keep it and always remembered his sense of humor and warmth. I am so sorry for your loss, and hope that your memories and sense of a full life lived well will comfort you.
