Dave was a good friend. Tony and I will miss him. We enjoyed when he would come and sing Karaoke with us on Friday nights at the Moose. RIP.

I was blessed to have played many a round of golf with Dave. I had a blast every time. He was always fun to be around and I will miss him.

Rest in peace dave...you were a gentle and caring man, we all enjoyed your company. You were a gentleman on and off the golf course and loved the competition on the poker table. I always enjoyed our conversations we had sharing our life experiences....you did have one of the best golf swings I ever saw...thanks for the time we shared
