Dear Dawn and family



I was so very sad to hear from Edie about David's passing. Although I only met him years ago, I do remember what a lovely and kind man he was. You spoke so lovingly of your family Dawn when we got together last in LA and I wish you all many happy memories of David and the years you had together. With Love Debbie Salvay
