Dave was good man. Though he was a couple years younger than me in school, we had a similar group of friends. When he visited his mother in Greendale, he would often stop in and see me. He would fill me in on "Oxford news". He left us way too early.
My thoughts and prayers go out to all of his friends and family.

I want to express my sorrow at the loss of Dave. We were Brothers-In-Law at one time and part of a real family that I often think of and will always miss. Dave was very special to me and we shared a chemistry that bonded us. We were brothers-in-heart. I always looked forward to seeing him, which was often. We loved the same music. We danced at our own home Bose Pool bonfire parties like Lynn mentioned. Seems we were always comfortable being at 416 Leicester St. We had our own comedy routines and we were our own biggest fans! We just assumed we would do something together every weekend, holiday, vacation, camping trip, birthday – anything. We even shared the birth of our first children in 93, becoming fathers together. Such a special time. Watching the children grow. You think it will never end. So many memories.
We eventually lost our way to changes life brought. Life lessons are sometimes unforgiving. Cherish each moment with those you love. To Dave’s parents – Thank you. You raised a wonderful son. Tyler and Danika, You had a wonderful smart father. Be proud! I am so sorry for you all. This is such a hard thing to go through. Jann – I hope you’re ok, this must be hard for you too as it is for the whole family. His loss seems impossible, but I will always be grateful for the time we had.

Dear Diane, Leo, Barbara, Bob, Helen, and family:
We were so shocked and saddened to hear about the sudden passing of David. We have fond memories of the many years we spent with him as a member of our family. You are in our thoughts as you go through these difficult times. Diane, we are appreciative of all the help you have given Jann, Tyler and Danika during these past days. Although we cannot physically be there with you on Friday, our thoughts and hearts will be. Love to you all.

Dear Tyler, Danika, Colton and Jann:
We will always cherish our memories of the many happy and fun family times we shared together with your Dad (Tyler and Danika), and former husband (Jann). From the infamous "what the blank is fuchsia" question asked during the wedding planning by Jim M., the color blind best man, to the "Bose pool parties" at Mom's that turned into endless nights of rounds of Pitch as well as other favorite card and table games. We can never forget, although we might like to, the hilariously out of tune version of Sweet Home Alabama sung Karaoke-style by David, Michael and Jim A. at their favorite watering hole. And then there's our adventures of multiple trips tubing down the Deerfield River, sitting by campfires in the many campgrounds we visited, having to dive into your grey pontiac when the mother bear came to our campsite to steal John's box of bread and green peppers, enjoying the beaches and our tiny summer homes in Maine, and especially spending holidays together, in particular the Christmas we all decorated T-shirts and were asked to pose for the "silly" photo and only David and I (Lynn) actually made silly faces. Although David has left this world, a part of him will forever stay with those of us who knew and spent time with him. Tyler, Danika, Colton and Jann, you are in our thoughts now and always. Love you all so much.
Auntie Lynn and Uncle Michael
