We were surprised and saddened to hear of Dave's passing. I have fond memories of my dad, Uncle Bill, Dave and I going to the races in NY. Dave and I would sing at the top of our lungs with the radio. I'm sure it drove our dads crazy.
Please know how very sorry we are and that you and Joshua are in our thoughts and prayers.

I really dont have the words to say. I'm still in disbelief. Dave was amazing. From his fishing stories to his music memories,I could sit and listen for hrs. King cod and the blue sharks was my first cassette that my dad gave me. Listened to it for 2 months straight. Lol.
Dave always had the time to help or talk to anyone. We all have so many memories of him and those will live on forever. Dad loved him as his own son and always told me that. I'm sorry holly and Joshua for the hand you have been dealt. You both were his pride and joy. He will be truly missed by us all. Love you both.

Dear Holly and Joshua, I am so so sorry to hear of the loss of your beloved husband & father. I remember his willingness to help out with our luncheons during the First Baptist Church Fair events that we used to hold...and in other ways...although I did not know him well, he was most generous to help us and he was greatly appreciated. I know this is a huge loss for you both...you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Holly,
Sending my sincere condolences on David’s passing to you and your son. David was a bright light who could melt a room with his big and awesome voice. It was my priviledge to play alongside him, Mark, Barry and Stu in our group. He and I shared a love of the ocean and we spent many hours talking about fishing and music. He always had a smile on his face and he always was a kind hearted man. He will be missed by all who knew and loved him.
