I just heard the news of this tragedy today. I haven't seen Dave in a year and I was just talking about him. I played in a couple different bands with him and loved him like a brother. My deepest condolences. -Chris

I flew in from California when I heard of the tragedy that befell my cousin David. I was not surprised by the hundreds of people who came to his wake to pay respects to Andrea and my uncle Art and their respective families. It is a beautiful thing to know that Davie lived a good life, had many friends and touched so many lives. I am proud to have known him and loved him. The collage of pictures brought back so many good memories. I am sad that he is gone and wish Andrea (Greg) and Art and their other children peace in their heart knowing he is being looked after by others who left us before him.
