Dave was a true professional who performed his job with skill, consistency, grace, warmth and clever intellect. His long tenure at Campiellos, is one the main reasons I frequented his "Bar" for 17 years. His greeting was always warm, sincere and timely. Then it would begin. Dave and I exchanged hundreds of Trivia questions over the years with emphasis on but not limited to Sports. His quick wit, vast knowledge, and an uncanny ability to navigate the questions, made for great challenge, fun and laughter. Dave often told me Tony Romo would never make the Super Bowl, and, well, he was right about that too.
Dave will be greatly missed and Campiello's simply won't be the same without him. I am saddened by his passing, particularly at such a young age, but his generosity, spirit and smile will not be forgotten

We have known Dave for over 15 years. He was a smart, caring, fun loving guy who always saw the best in everything and everyone. He took his job and responsibilities very seriously and was always the person who held everyone to the highest of extremes. He spoke of his many adventures and gave us much advise we found helpful and entertaining too! He had such a keen wit and sense of humor! During his illness he fought with bravado and gained even more of our respect. It was our great pleasure to know him, we will remember him always with fondness and respect.
Our condolences,
Tom and Deborah Struharik
