Ive known dave almost my whole life. Him and my dad were good friends, they passed away 5 days apart. I have comfort in knowing they are still together as they enter their new journey in heaven together. Dave was a great man who was a friend to all. He will be deeply missed by all his friends in the neighborhood.
