I knew Dave Kaiser back at CNA in the years 1988-1993 and 1995-1998.
He was one of the nicest people I have ever known. I and several others would sometimes get together at lunch with Dave for cards and just to talk.

I know he is happy in Heaven now and I know his family and friends look forward to seeing him there.

Dave,

May you and your family be blessed.

We will always remember Dave Kaiser as someone who loved his children dearly... Supporting the girls basketball/volleyball teams at St A's to taking his daughter and her girlfriends up to their family cabin. We have nothing but fond memories... Peace be with you. The Mittino/Mikels Family

we still treasure the memories Dave created for the girls in Maureen's St. A's class. We love watching the videos he made of basketball and volleyball games, and the birthday parties in the back yard. He so loved all the kids. He will be greatly missed. Love the Blabolil Family

It is with great sadness that I hear of Dave's passing. I have fond memories of all our times together during the early days partying in Lincoln Park, eating at Les Pooms and visiting at the Lee's. Marianne, both you and Dave will be in our hearts.

David was a great man. I had the privilege to work with David for a couple of years at Aon. He was a great guy to work with. So much fun to be around. He always made me laugh. He is up in heaven now still taking care of you all. He will always be around looking over all of you.

My heart goes out to you and your family at this time and in the days ahead.
