Aw, dear wonderful friend David! My heart is so very heavy, but I wanted to best champion the good and happy spirit of the loyal friend that I knew - and greatly cherished. My God, where should I start? My favorite memories of you David, involves greeting you at your store at the Main Place Mall (down-town Buffalo) just about everyday. I (as a longtime downtown Buffalo worker) would "pop by" just about every work day to briefly chat and share a laugh or two with you. It always greatly lifted me. One year it was my birthday and you grabbed up a few chocolate bars as my gift and said, "Happy Birthday!" I laughed like hell! He apologized for not having them "gift wrapped." That was David. God bless you Chris and all of your good family.

Rest easy Uncle Dave. I will always remember your gentle laugh. I loved listening to your accounts of recollecting memories of Grandma and Grandpa. Seems like Grandpa was in trouble by the end of most of those accounts . I love you always Uncle Dave.
Your Godson, Jeff
