I work at the Ewald Branch Library that Dave always frequented. We became friends over the years, and I am heartbroken to hear this news. We at the library are all so sorry about this. Dave always asked how we were doing, how our families are, and always had a happy smile and kind words to share. I will miss his seeing him so often. I'm sending prayers to all who loved him.

Great friend and cousin

Dave was my parent's neighbor on Barrington for all the years he lived there and until my parents moved out in 2018. Dave was a great neighbor and friend. He was so kind to my parents and always thoughtful and considerate. Many times he would clear their driveway and walk when it snowed and it was a comfort knowing he was next door when my parents were alone. I am so sorry to his son, Cindy, and the extend family for his loss and wish to offer my sincere condolences.

I was Dave’s former sister in law. I will always remember Dave as a kind gentle spirited man.
When Eli was born he called me and he was do happy, he said it’s a boy! Vicky and Dave were thrilled with their baby Eli.
RIP Dave

Though I have not seen you since I was young kid, I will always remember you as my Godfather. You and Shirley. Eddie and you used to love throwing me head-first into the couch. The photo shown is exactly how I remember you. Always a lot of fun. Even used to call you Uncle Dave back in the day cause if someone said David, we both would look. Left this earth on Mom's Birthday, I know my mom and dad will love seeing you again. My sincere condolences and prayers to the entire family.

My first cigar was with uncle Dave on his back porch. Gave me his jacket because I was underdressed for the cold Detroit weather. Still have the jacket and wear it any time the worlds just a little too cold. Great man. Proud to have him in the family.

Dave was one of the good guys, I am so glad he and Cindy found each other. We got to share time with him and make some great memories. There is a definite hole in our hearts and our family without him here. I feel we all gained a new angel on our teams.
