I was so sad to hear of the passing of Dave. As my high school friend, he always made me laugh, but also showed his "soft" side. Our last reunion had us ending up at his house talking and laughing until the next morning. My condolences to you, Sue, and his family and friends.

My sincere sympathy to his family and friends. Along with my daughters I remember him as a gentleman and significant friend. I also remember him and his family as members of Ingomar United Methodist Church. I'm sure he'll be missed by many friends and family.

My sincere and deepest sympathy to Dave's wonderful family and circle of friends. Dave was the best high school friend anyone could have. He always gathered groups of good friends to have fun. Dave was a welcome visitor at my family's home. My sisters (Janny and Sue) and I loved the way he always had something nice to say. I remember him as so unpretentious and fair. I'm sad to say we did not keep in touch but it was reassuring to know Dave brought so much happiness to this world. May those sweet memories comfort those who loved him.

I just heard about David. Though thru the years we were not in day to day contact, I still considered Dave to be a good friend. I can still hear him chastising Dusty for doing something she shouldn't have done. He enjoyed life and always was able to put a positive on everything. The world is a lesser place without him in it. My thoughts and prayers are with you Susie.

To Dave's family,

I'm a former NA classmate of Dave's. I was fortunate enough to see him at a class reunion, and to know of his success in life and with his family. What a truly, good guy. Always smiling, so bright, and so sweet. I send my most sincere sympathies to his wonderful family, and will remember him as one of my sweetest high school friends.

My sympathy to Dave's loved ones. My sisters (Linda & Sue)and I have many happy memories of Dave at Ingomar United Methodist Church & University of Life and family dinners at our home. May God be with you and comfort you.

We're deeply saddened by the fact we won't be seeing Dave saunter into our gigs anymore. It was always a pleasure talking with him, sharing a laugh, or debating when fuel-cell cars will be available to the public. He was one amazing character, and a good friend, indeed. We'll be toasting Manhattans in his honor at the Thunderbird Cafe 3/10 & 3/11.

Sincerely,

Pappy, David, Ali and theMIKES

I am deeply saddened to hear of Dave's passing. Dave's optimism and relaxed approach to life were truly inspirational. No one can argue that Dave was one of a kind - he will be sorely missed by many people. I am very grateful to have know

Dave was a good friend, and someone I trusted when having a conversation. I met him through a mutual friend, Joe Lander, and had the opportunity to spend a number of great times with him either skiing or just hanging around. I will miss his humor and friendship. It will bring a smile to me when I think of him and the times we shared. My condolences, thoughts, and prayers go to his loved ones.

It is a sad day.

We knew him as Jerry since the day he was born. During his teen years he was a wiz at elecrtronics You never knew what he was going to take apart next.
