I was very sad to hear of Dave's passing the other day. He was a great friend to my brother, Oren Blaisdell, from childhood until his untimely passing in 1993. My hope is that they are hanging out once again somewhere in Heaven, laughing as I remember. My condolences to Dave's family.

David! Buddy! You will always be with me our hearts connected. I love you Bud!

So surreal...I am and was a fellow student and classmate of David's back at John F. Kennedy High School in Sacramento California...class of 1976. Simply solemn to see this and know that David is not here any longer...thank God for both His love and the memories we get to keep.

To Dave's family,
I am so very sorry to hear of your loss.
Unfortunately, I had not seen Dave since our years at Kennedy but I have thought of him on occasion over the years and wondered how, where he was.I was hoping he would attend our 40th reunion, I even recall asking some of our classmates if they had seen him. I was in the concert choir and Dave accompanied us in the stage band many times and we all had a lot of great times on those trips! Wishing your family comfort in knowing he was a friend that will never be forgotten.
With Great Sorrow,
Melinda (Freese) Bevans

Dave was the most wonderful brother-in-law and friend to me. I always appreciated how he loved and took care of my sister Bobbi, Erik, and Kacy. His spirit and caring was so evident in all he did. Will miss him greatly. Much love and peace David.
