Dave will be truly missed. His smile and warm personality always made me feel good. I will remember him and all his work on his flowers around his house, which made me jealous. I wish I had his gift. His gift for making someone feel happy, his gift to make people feel comfortable, his gift for being able to talk to someone as a friend even if he just met them. He is my family. Love you, Carolyn
