David was a very wise man who loved his family .He was a true friend..My sincere condolences to the family

Honored and pleased to have David as a friend
and neighbor for 40 years. David will be missed but never forgotten.
Gayle and Zarin, God grant you the strength and courage you require during this most difficult time.
Love you.

I always enjoyed the brief conversations I had with David when he had the strength to come to church. Colorful, jovial stories! Prayers of peace and comfort for Gayle!

Gayle/Zarin - Sorry for your loss. I have great memories growing up next door to you guys and Dave was a big part of that. Spent a lot of my youth playing over there with Zarin, and Dave was always a really nice guy. I still remember the endless hours of playing Space Invaders and Asteroids on the old Atari 2600 with Zarin until Dave suggested we maybe spend some time outdoors playing instead. Great advice that kids could still use today. He cooked a mean breakfast too!

I had the honor and privilege to work with Dave for several years at The Grand Blanc Plant. Dave was always good to work with, always a gentleman. He will be missed by many. May God be with Dave and his family.

Gayle and Zarin, I was so sorry to hear of your loss. Dave was a great guy. I always enjoyed our conversations both at work and when he would come up here to Charlevoix for a couple days. There was always a certain energy and enthusiasm that he projected whenever he was speaking.

One of my first memories is of my Uncle Dave pulling me in a wagon. I would have been only two and a half. He was visiting my father and mother in California. Being with Uncle Dave was always memorable.
