Dear Dave´s family, I am saddened to hear Dave is no longer with us. My deepest condolences to everyone. I was blessed to have met Dave at the American Legion Post 80. Dave was very welcoming and a genuine kind person. His charisma always made you feel welcomed. Thank you for your service and everything you did. You definitely made an impact on my life for the better. I will always appreciate you and everything you did for me and everyone around you.

Thank you Dave
God bless you
Rest in Paradise

Dear Bonnie and family, We are deeply saddened to hear about your husband, father, grandfather, Dave. We found out through your Christmas Card. During the times we met, he will always be remembered in our Hearts and in our thoughts as being a very kind gentle person with a super sense of humor! We remember Dave giving us the rabbit that your family wanted to pass on to our family. Jaimie, was the recipient. We placed the cage on the southside of our shed. We moved it closer to the house that first winter. The next summer we planted our garden in the spot where the cage was by the shed. Our tomato plants grew so huge from the bunnies droppings! A natural fertilizer! These plants were taller than Billy! We will always remember your husband and his kindness. May Our Lord comfort you, Bonnie, and your entire family. Dave will always be remembered in our Hearts! LOVE, The Richey Family (Debby, Randy, Billy, Jaimie)

Dear Bonnie and family,
I am deeply saddened by the sad news of Dave's passing. He was such a strong presence, a huge jokester, and was so knowledgeable about so many things.
Dave was one of the luckiest of men; finding and marrying the love of his life, proud of his children, and thrilled with being a grandfather.
He will be missed and remembered with love. My most sincere condolences.

Dear Bonnie and family,
We will sorely miss our long chats with Dave over the backyard fence. He has been a wonderful neighbor for many, many years.
With deepest sympathy,
Jean Heasley and Bill Kalafut
