I was greatly saddened to learn of David's passing this week. I worked with Dave for many years at Kodak and he was an awesome colleague and a wonderful man. I was blessed to bump into him at Wegmans last year and spend some time talking to him. Little did I know that'd be our last conversation. God rest your soul Dave and God bless and comfort your Family during this time of great loss. Later buddy!

He was so much fun to be around and although I haven't seen him in many years I have such great memories and pictures of our high school years. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Losing a sibling is so very hard. May you find comfort and peace knowing he is with Our Lord. Heaven has gained another angel. Fly high my dear friend until we meet again. ❤

I met Dave in the late 70's at Dominics. We were close friends and over the years you lose contact of so many people. I was deeply shocked when i saw the obit today. I hope he didnt suffer if he had a illness. He always treated me with respect he was a great man
May he rest in peace
