to Dave's family:
I just found out about Dave's passing. So very sorry.
He filled my prescriptions for me at Winchester Drug. That is how I got
to know him. Then I would see him at Dunkin Donuts and around
town as well. He always would call me by name. A very well spoken
and kind gentle man.
So very sorry for your loss.
