I helped Dave at Waldman Supply on 1814 Kansas Ave back in the 1980's Dave taught me his valuable work ethic and it served me well over 50 years now. He always worked on Saturdays and it was a privilege to work by his side. He was a great influence in my life besides my father Howard Reaves. May both of them gentlemen RIP forever. Blessings to all of your family and friends Thank you

Dear Steve and Howard,

Please accept my sincere condolences. I held your father in such high regard. I found him to be fair in his business dealings and so much appreciated the simple every day kindnesses he showed to a young property manager. I will keep all of you in my prayers.

Dear Tillie, Steve and Howard,

Dave was a working inspiration to all of us and he left us with many fond memories. He is clearly healthy now and probably still working. Prayers to you all.

With Love,
