There are no words that can be said to describe the kindness and true caring displayed by Dave. His job was done in great detail at all times. But most importantly, he treated everyone that came in contact with him with kindness and a wonderful sense of humor. Dave was my buddy as I worked with him everyday. He loved Sue with all of his heart as well as the rest of his family and he spoke of them all of the time and fondly. Please take comfort in knowing that you were all so very fortunate to have had Dave in your lives and remember that he will always live on in your hearts.

I had the pleasure of seeing this kind mans smile everytime he walked into the Beau Salon. As he came through checking to see if the light bulbs were all working he would always say hello. Mr Ed is lost without his lunch buddy sitting there at that little table. He will be truly missed. Just look outside today he is shining that light bulb down on us. Our prayers are with his family.
