Dave was a great man! Funny, loving and caring. I'm very sad to have found this... Great memories we,(Pete and I) will forever cherish If it wasn't for him, Pete and I probably would have had a very different upbringing..... One of the best men I had the pleasure of meeting.... My heart goes out to the family.....

I have known Dave for almost fifty years and all that time he has been a character with a great laugh, a wild and crazy sense of humor, a love of life, and a great love for others. We had fun in Texas, at Como and Town park, riding the motorcycles and at parties at our house, and numerous bars and most recently at Music Is Art! Dave loved his music!!!! I hope he meets up with my brother John and with Jim Daisley up there and they get to listen to some great music together! You will be missed

Dave was a good friend since high school. I´ll never forget our senior picnic when he drove around Akron park in his Ford Ranchero with a keg strapped in the back!
We joined up again after getting out of Air Force in front of John Heltas house! We ended up hanging for a looooong time
Many memories! Caves! Ponds! Fishing! Darts!
