David was such a sweet man. We worked together for many years at Verisk. On occasion, he visited us for Sunday lunch and then we attended my daughter´s soccer game. Good memories! May he rest in peace!

Dear Daniel, please accept my sincerest condolences of your father's passing. He was a wonderful, compassionate and a very caring man who truly loved your Mom. Every time I saw him your Mom was with him. He was a true gentleman. I am so sorry, Daniel.
