Patty and Family,
I am very saddened to learn of Dave's passing. I thought of him a few weeks ago when someone mentioned to me Blaskovich Chrevrolet - which is where I worked with Dave many years ago. He was just the nicest guy...quiet with a great sense of humor! May the peace of God be your comfort and strength during this difficult time.

Dave, I didn't know you outside of work, and even tho we didn't interact much, you always seemed like a smart, experienced guy. You will always remind me of the good old days at the water company! RIP +
