The son of Robert & Charlene Filas, Dave was born on February 23rd, 1962 in Chicago, IL.
Dave attended Loyola University, where he was involved in his fraternity.
Dave was a lover of many things, but especially his Chicago sports – Cubs, Bears, Blackhawks, & Bulls. He loved classic cars, especially a Corvette, attending the car show in Chicago with his kids and to a boat show with his Dad.
Dave was an amazing friend, father, grandfather, son, and dog dad.
Dave is survived by his daughters Nicole (Vince), Brittany (Brock), Lain, granddaughter McKenna, mother of his children Sandy (Mike), and his fur babies Wrigley & Phillip.
He is predeceased by his father Robert and mother Charlene.
In lieu of flowers donations can be made to Almost Home Foundation who is helping find a loving home for his fur babies Wrigley & Phillip.

Less than a year ago, I saw Dave as happy as I had in 10 years. It was October 26, 2024 for his beloved daughters wedding. As his neighbor, I saw Dave at least a couple days a week this past decade. I am grateful for it. He was a second father to me and a friend to all my extended family, always willing to lend a hand. I send prayers and love to all of the family.
