Dave was certainly one of a kind. He did it his way and had a great ride through life. He always had a smile and a joke every time our paths crossed. We'll miss him very much.

I'm sorry to hear of the passing of Dave.
I had the pleasure of working with him at Pacific Bell / at&t.
He was such a special guy, always had a funny joke.
He seem to have lived a full life, always doing something fun, camping or riding his horse Alpo.
We'll all miss him here at the at&t San Bruno Construction Yard.
May he rest in peace

Dear Barbara and family of Dave:

I was so sorry to read about Dave's death in today's paper. I went to grammar school (Holy Name) with Dave and we were active in the Pro Dea Club during high school. He was a good friend and I have many good memories of these years together. My deepest sympathy to all of the family. I know that he will be deeply missed. Pat Powers Bilafer
