So sorry for your loss. I remember Dave fondly. I met his when he was a member of St. Luke’s basketball and I was a cheerleader. Peace and prayer for his family.

Mr. Fontanilla. Words cannot describe how much you meant to me and to others. You gave me hope in my darkest hours, and you always supported me when i needed someone. I remember coming into English II and always seeing you have a smile on your face. You were such a bright soul, a man full of wisdom and integrity, kindness and love. May you rest in Heaven peacefully playing that ukulele of yours.

I met him 44 years ago. A teammate, classmate and a friend. He was one with so many talents. My heart goes to him and his family. Look down upon us to give us the strength to be the example that you were to all your classmates and teammates. Give a hug to your mom and dad. Miss you Davey

My condolences to the entire Fontanella family. I was lucky to call him my teammate. The poise and tenacity he exhibited as a player carried on throughout his life. I enjoyed catching up with Dave a few years ago when he brought his Manteca frosh teams to SM. The Green family will keep Dave and your family in our prayers.
