David was a wonderful person, always giving and always positive, I am happy that I shared my life as his sister-in-law with him in it. It was a better place because of him and we will all miss his big presence.

I am sorry to hear of Dave's passing. I will never forget an experience that we shared. I was on a good soccer team back in the day. In fact we even won the state championship that year. One day at practice Dave showed up and wanted to try being a goalkeeper. Since he knew the coach(my brother)he got the chance. Some of these guys could shoot the ball like it was coming out of a cannon. David was able to take hard shots off every part of his body and played well. He enjoyed trying it. And, we enjoyed his interest in stopping by and playing. A real man's man. We always enjoyed seeing Janie and Dave. I wish you all the best Jane. May peace be with you

Dave was a Wonderful man. I had the pleasure of meeting Dave back in 1994 through my work. He would design & fabricate parts for our business that were amazing. Shortly after meeting him I realized he lives within 1/2 mile from me. He was been a great neighbor & friend since. I will greatly miss seeing him when a would jog by his house. He would always yell out my name "HI DAVE" with that strong voice. WHAT A GUY! He will be missed!
