It's almost been 4 years and it felt like yesterday we were heading to kingston dam to go fishing and watch him float down the river in his raft drinking a beer. I still miss him more than anything on this earth and I'll be up there one day seeing you at those golden gates waiting for a big hug.

He was the best father I could ever have. He meant so much to me and I can't stop thinking about him. My life will never be the same without him. I loved him so much and will never stop loving him. He would always tell me how proud he was of and can still hear him say that. I miss him so much, It was too early for him to go. It's not fair.....

David, you will forever be in my heart. You were such a good, sweet man who always found time to cheer me up. Im so thankful that we never lost touch and i know that when we hung up the last time you knew that i meant it when i said "Love you, kid"

My precious precious son, my firstborn child,
I cannot imagine living in this world without you
in it! You came into my life 35 years ago and changed me
Forever!! What a blessing from God to be your mother!
You are in Heaven now honey, and I will see you soon! My
Heart is so broken over losing you my darling son. Rest
In peace until we meet again. Give Jesus, Papa & Mema hugs n kisses for me. I love you with all my heart David and I will
Miss you terribly every moment of every day for the rest
Of my life. Love always & forever, Mommy

Dave,
You are my brother and I will miss you dearly. I want you to know that I will look after the family, provide for and protect for your son, and console everyone as best as I can. We will forever have you in our thoughts and prayers...until we meet again.
Love - Jon

Dave was a wonderful man and most importantly, a fantastic father. He will be missed but I know he is looking down on all of his family and friends with open arms. He was taken far too early.

Dave, you will truly be missed by so many people. Work isn't the same without you. May you rest in peace. Prayers to all of your family.  ~Lunchbox

Dave was one of the world's finest gifts! Kind, compassionate, funny, an amazing Dad, a best friend and a brother. My life was truly blessed by having Dave as a big part of it! I will always cherish the moments we shared. This is not "Goodbye," but, "See you later." I'll miss you unti then, PapaBear!

David is my childhood friend, we grew up together. He is one of the sweetest, funniest people I know. Even though time and distance separated us in these later years, it is always as if no time passed when we finally reconnected. And now I will wait again as time and distance separate us and I will long for the day to sit again in his company and laugh and be light hearted and soak in the love that he radiated. He will never be more than a thought away, he will always be in my heart!

Dave what a bright star in our family, when you married my daughter what an honor to have such a wonderful man and father . You will be cherished in my heart forever. No one could have asked for a better son-in-law You are gone way too soon. All My Love XOXO

I am so grateful for the short time that I was able to work with and get to know Dave. He was compassionate, a wonderful brother, and pretty hilarious. Rest in peace my friend ~freebird

A heart of gold, hilarious,& loyal to family and friends are just a few of the numerous reputable traits that Dave possessed.
He will forever be missed and never forgotten.
