I didn't know David personally, but I will always remember how kind he was to me when I had to go to the station after I received one of those scam checks. My husband Joe Crump had been hit and killed by a car a few months earlier on the Millis/Medway line on Village Street. As soon as I said my name he remembered about my husband and was very kind! My prayers go out to his whole family as well as his Medway police family.

I had the opportunity and pleasure working with Elisa and Dave @ Northrop Grumman in the 80´s. I remember Dave as always friendly, considerate, and a positive co-worker.
My sincere condolences to you Elisa, and your family.
You guys were truly the best.
Best Regards
