Barb, Pete, and Ellie - I am so sorry about Dave. The boys had kept me posted on his health and all of you have been in my thoughts. We sure had some great adventures! (Even though it seems a lifetime ago). I always enjoyed his cooking tips, wonderful meals, and his contagious laugh. May all your memories give you comfort and peace.

Barb, terribly sad news just relayed to me by brother Tom. So glad I had the chance to visit with you all last August and to see Dave enjoying the life he loved there at home with you and your kids, the grapes, and the wine. You all are in my thoughts. Wishing you all nothing but peace and love.

Although, we haven't seen you in a long time, we have so many fond memories of the great gatherigs in your home. Thank god and our boys for being great friends as it was through them, that we got to know and love Dave. Please know you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers...
Always, George, Lydia, Clint and Evan Wilton
