Emma, my deepest condolences to you and your family. I only met your dad once but feel like I knew him because he was such a strong, beautiful presence in your life. More times than I can count, you’ve referenced his ideas, advice, and sense of humor. He was ever-present in conversations where we were trying to solve big, knotty problems or finding humor in the everydayness of life. Thank you for sharing a piece of your dad with those of us who love and adore you.

I am so sorry to hear of Uncle Dave’s passing. I remember the great care he provided for Nanny and Grandpa. They spoke so highly of him and were so proud. I treasure the Bible he gave me of Nanny’s. I am truly grateful to him.

While Dave was one of the smartest ones in our class, he was very personable and always had a smile on his face. I will always remember the awesome job he did as the male lead in our senior class play—no wonder he was such a good salesman! His personality really shined in that play. I am so glad he made it to our 55th reunion in October and that I was able to have a nice visit with him. He will be truly missed by so many. Condolences and peace to all his family during this most difficult time.

I, along with everyone else, am in a state of shock. Dave exuded intelligence and kindness. He did the things that truly mattered where friends and family were concerned. He shared a long visit my my dad before he died, and it meant the world to daddy. He will be missed; love and prayers to his loved ones, of which there are many!

Dad always wanted to go hang gliding, but this was as close as he got: parasailing to celebrate my business school graduation. Always a thrill seeker! He taught me to go after the adventures you want to have, without hesitation.
