I shall miss my cousin Dave. I enjoyed all the times we spent together, talking, eating, laughing! David was quite a character, handsome, gregarious, smart & witty; he loved travel, music, art - and my cousin De. So many beautiful memories. I’m thankful he came into our lives & that he is now in peace. De, I hope you find solace in knowing how much David loved you, and how respected & loved you are by so many others, including me & Bill. May God be with you.
In our hearts forever. ❤

Dave was a unique man, he was amiable, at times dashing, smart, had a funny sense of humor, and always curious. We had the best times during family gatherings. He adored Dee, she was everything to him! Together they built beautiful memories for years to come.
Dee, I wish you peace, comfort, courage, and lots of love. I love you my beautiful sister (in-law), and will always be here for you.

Hi Mrs. Tippit,
I worked with Dave at C2C/Velocette for a couple of years. I was scared of him at first since he was very outspoken and I could hear him from across the office but even though I was new and not good at my job, he was always very kind to me and I really loved his presence in the office. For my birthday, he bought me a cake. This was the pic of us. I wasn’t expecting it and it meant so much to me. He also made me feel accepted when he would include me when sharing his vacation photos at work. I don’t talk very much but I was always aware of his presence and when he was not at the office. I felt a sort of comfort and security when he was there because with how crazy work was and all that could go wrong, I knew he and Carlos could always figure out a way to make things work out. I pray for Gods comfort and strength to be with you and your loved ones. Dave is one of a kind and so unapologetically him and I loved that about him. I’m so grateful to have had someone like him in this world and to have crossed paths with him. All my love to you. Tiff
