Dave was a special part of my family. He was one of the first people Melissa met and became close too. He was at my house many times...we would talk alot especially when I was driving him home. I will miss your smile, your hello when I was in shop rite and Mel would say lets go in Dave's line....I would pass by your house and honk...I can still see you sitting on your front step smoking a cigarette...I really liked it when you came to our apartment. You did touch peoples lives even though you didn't know it.
Now you're at peace...One with God. My prayers to your whole family...May God Bless you all and thank you Dave for being part of Melissa's life and mine. You will shine on!

With love and great sorrow.

David Scaffa. My lord what an amazing person he was. I've had such great luck in my life to meet such a beautiful person. Dave was one of the best friends I've ever had, I am so so sad and sorry to hear about this. To say Dave was one of a kind would be an understatement. Rest In Paradise my dear friend.

To the Scaffa, Pliskin and Werner families, There are no words that seem adequate when something like this happens. Just know what you are all is so many people's thoughts at this time and that all across this country prayers are being said for you and your son, David. May you all find some form of peace and comfort in that.

I'm heartbroken to have heard this news. Words can not express how sad i am for your family and the loss of your beautiful boy. My son knew David and shares the same struggles as David, a battle I fear him losing all too often. I am sure he is at peace now and pray for god to watch over you all and strengthen you in this time of unimaginable need.
God bless you. Rest peacefully David...
