I met David when we were in the 8th grade. We went to different middle schools. He went to school in Belmont Ma. I went to FA Day Jr high. Every day I walked passed his house on the corner of Pleasant St & Rangley Rd.

I'm so sorry to hear about the passing of Dave. My condolences go out to all of his family! I have so many memories that go back so many years that are coming back to me, and they are bringing a smile to my face. What I will remember most is the fun we had gathering with friends and family, the laughs, the stories and the great group rides on our Harleys! You will forever be missed, Dave!

Cousin David but always the "cuz" as we called each other. I miss you dearly and have been discombobulated since your sudden passing. Always the die hard, outspoken, moving and doing, loud, good heart and spirit, larger than life kinda guy. In my life, can count those with a couple of fingers only. So, not many characters like that. Diamond in the rough. We hung tight with each always throughout and will continue - nothing diminishes or breaks that bond EVER. That bond was forged pretty much eons ago - thankfully between we two in the family. So so so glad, grateful and happy that we had a chance to talk very, very, very, recently - literally a few days before your very unexpectedly and untimely demise. Given everything you went through and endured over the course of your 62 years, I know you carried "heaviness" and "I know that you know that I know that you know" loop. God love you and watch over you. Sorry I can't be there given my physical walking limitations about which you knew. You know how I feel and how much love I have for you, dear, Cuz. Rest in Piece by dear Cuz and have a "delicious" time now that you have crossed over to the other side. All my deepest sympathies to Michael, Amy, Eric, Nancy and Laurie. xoxoxo

We are shocked and saddened at the news of David's passing. I clearly remember seeing him for the first time when he was 4 months old (!) at Howard and Byla's house in Belmont. He was the cutest kid you can imagine. I had the pleasure of watching over the years as he grew and matured and had a beautiful family of his own.
He was taken way too soon...It is all too sad.
