Personal note from Carol, Kristin and Lauren

Dear Friends and Family of Dave,

Thank you so much for visiting Dave's memorial website. As you may know, we decided to cancel a small "socially distant" celebration for Dave we had planned on Carol and Dave's driveway due to health concerns over the ongoing pandemic. So we felt this website could be a nice alternative for sharing our thoughts, photos, memories and anything else you'd like. No share is too small. ❤

For more photos and comments Dave is also on Legacy.com and on LastingMemories.com, which can be accessed from his Legacy page:

Many thanks.
Love Carol, Kristin and Lauren
