Our greatest sympathy to all of Dave's family. We got to know Dave for several months and in those months we so enjoyed his company. For those of you who he talked to about having some "authentic mexican food", well that was with us. He also loved to cook and was a good one at that. We learned a lot from him about cooking just as he did from us. We truly miss him now and for much more time to come. He talked quite a bit about his children. They were his pride and joy. His struggles have ended and we know he is in a better place. God bless you Dave.

Dave will be greatly missed by our family. He was my best friend and, in many ways, just like a brother to me. To his sons, Brandon and Blake, we want you to know that your dad was the proudest dad of all. You boys were his reason for being here and he has the greatest confidence that you will be great in whatever path you may choose in life. May his body rest in peace and his soul live in eternal bliss.

David was my nephew and I fondly remember his quick smile and ability to light up a room. To Judy, his devoted and loving mother, to Danny his loving brother, my sincere condolences and prayers. God has plans for us all and David is with Him now.

David was my cousin. I hadn't seen him in over 25 years, but I have good memories of the times we spent together as children, both in Connecticut and Florida. Rest in Peace, David.

I know Davie did not remeber me pulling him in his little wagon but I will never forget how sweet and loving he was. Even when he said "do it again, and again, and again"! I loved the little boy and the man he became. Davie will be truly missed by all of us who loved him.
