We always looked forward to bowling with, not against, Dave, Beth, Roy and Robin in our Saturday night bowling league.
Dave's was a great guy, always cheered for everyone regardless of the score or how he himself was bowling.

Beth...condolences from our whole Wednesday night bowling team to you and your family. Both you and Dave could light up the whole joint each bowling evening and on top of that I'd always enjoy running into both of you on Canal Street. Many thoughts and prayers are going out to all of you. Unfortunately out of town this weekend so the hug will come later. Dave...RIP.
