To the Schrader family, my heartfelt sympathy. I knew Dave since elementary school at Holy Family, he was also a friend of my brother Mike. He was such a sweet man, with nothing but nice things to say to everyone he knew. My prayers will be with you all at this difficult time.

Although our paths haven't crossed for almost 30 years, I was saddened to hear about David's passing. We hung out for awhile back in the mid 80's. He was a dear sole. I'll miss him. Sorry for your loss.
