Dear Reggie,
I don’t even know what to say except that I am so terribly sorry to hear about Dave and shocked beyond words as all must be. I did not want to bother you at this time but did want you to know that you and your family are in my thoughts and my heart. I am here and available for anything you might want or need knowing full well you are surrounded by loving family and friends. Just know that I am thinking of you and will see you on Thursday.

Dearest Reggie--
We are all deeply sorry for the loss of your partner, mate, husband and best friend. There are absolutely no words to express both our sadness over Dave's passing and appreciation to have known such a wonderful person who added so much to the family and each gathering.
Dave is and forever will be in our prayers as will you. We pray also that you know each and every day that Dave is now with the Lord and other family members in Heaven, and that you will be with him again one day playing golf on the most beautiful courses imaginable.
All our love and God's Blessings to you and the family.
Don, Carol, Deric and Kacey Wanland

I miss your smiling face already. I only had a short time to really get to know you and Reggie but what a time George and I have had! Funny stories, lots of laughs and even more love! I got to see first hand how much you loved Reggie, Kyle and Andy yet you still always had enough for others too. We promise we'll be there for Reggie and the boys.
Rest now my friend. Love, Marianne (aka Magoo)

From all of us who knew him here in Scottsdale, AZ, we will remember Dave as a very good man, a fan of golf for himself and his family, and an honorable and kind person - and we just scratched the surface of knowing him well. We at Platinum Homes will miss him, and our hearts go out to Reggie and their kids. From Dave, Lisa, Bruce, Judy, Christine, and the rest of us at Platinum.
