To the Noke Family,

I am so sorry for the loss of David. You do not know me, but I am a long time friend of your daughter and sister-in-law; Edie. We lived on Cedar Street in Waltham many years ago. I will keep you and your whole family in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Please say hello to Edie for me. Edie, I hope you are well and I am thinking about you and your family. David is now at peace.

How you do anything is how you do everything is how my nephew,Nate,the Navy SEAL lived his life.This was Dave.He was as kind,generous and loyal to his friends as he was to his many family members.He was as skilled and intense selecting just the correct wedge to take dead aim at the golf hole as he was handling and firing the 50 cal on his Huey copter
REST IN PEACE NOKEY

Dave was one of the guys I always wanted on my team. I played basketball, touch football and even climbed Mt Washington with Dave by my side. And in our youth we played every game you can imagine.. He was not the biggest or strongest but you always got 1005 effort from Dave, in sports and in Life.. I cherished my friendship with him and am honored and proud to call him my friend My life is richer because Dave was in it. My Love, strength and support to all of his family. My heart is broken!

I graduated from Waltham High is 1967 and didn't know Dave until we met at Sandy Burr CC for the 50th class reunion golf event. I really liked Dave and we played golf again following that event. Dave was a kind gentle person and a very good golfer. I will miss him
