Dave was one of those gentle persons one meets rarly in a lifetime.His kindly nature was remarkable and it was a pleasure to know him. I was indeed saddened to hear of his passing. No doubt he will be sadly missed by everyone who knew him. I will remember him in spirit. I send condolences to his two children and their families. The world need more men just like him!

David, I was shocked to hear of the passing of your Dad. He was such a good man. I really enjoyed working with him at Clorox all those years. He and your mother were very "special people". He used to bring in such good food your mother made for our NGMC pot lucks. My Dad passed last summer and I know it is a very hard thing. You and your Dad were so close and I know you will miss him and think of him much. My thoughts and prayers are with you and yours. I noticed on the obit that you now have 3 children. Congratulations...
