I am deeply sadden by your loss. Trainer Dave will always have a place in my heart. He always took care of me as a athlete and co-worker. My fondest memories were of the basketball camps we worked together and having Meghan and Matthew be a part of it as well. One thing for sure is that he loved you both and was so proud to be your father. Keeping you all in my prayers.

Dave was certainly loved & respected by the East athletes and coaches. He was an outstanding athletic trainer! I am so saddened to learn of the sudden loss of your Dad. He was a good man & a great friend. Your Dad maintains the record for the most ankles taped in a day. Your family will be in my thoughts and prayers in the months ahead. Bob

We are saddened to hear the news of Dave's passing. Even after leaving Cherry Hill East, Dave still kept in touch with visits and Christmas cards. When Dave was well, he was a sweet and caring guy. "Trainer Dave" will never be forgotten.

I had the pleasure of knowing your dad at Cherry Hill east. I was fortunate is he and I kept in contact. I got to see him at the gym, spoke to him on the phone and he so kindly came to some of our tennis matches last season. I was looking forward to being able to spend time with him this fall. I am so sorry for your loss and you all remain in my prayers
