Judy, Chad & David,
I know there is nothing I can say to take away the heartache you are feeling. Dave was a wonderful husband, Dad and Poppa and friend. He loved his family and life. Know that I’m here for you and I love each and everyone of you. Dave will always be missed but never forgotten.❤️

Judy and family,
As you know, Dave’s family and my family were neighbors for many years. Dave and I were friends from the moment we met in the first grade, and having that friendship has always been comforting to me. Linda and I hope that all of you who are Dave’s family members will find comfort in knowing that from my perspective he always supported and loved each of you. We will miss him, but never forget him.
