My friend, who I loved and repected I also cared for deeply. We spent many special moments together laughing and talking. He was the dearest friend I've ever had. True, Kind, Tust worthy, realiable and most important sincere. I will miss him more than words can say. Dave will never leave my heart my mind or soul. A true friend who was there through thick and thin and like a brother who looked after me and wanted the best for me. Memories will never die. My sincere condolences to the family. Effie
