my family is so sadden about his death we new dave for years my children adored him so sorry for you loss trisha swiger and family
A person that departs from this earth never truly leaves, for they are still alive in our hearts and minds, through us, they live on.
I am honored and blessed to have known Dave. He was truly a blessing in my life and I will miss him.
Even though I had not had contact with Dave since about 1984 I have not forgotten him and had recently reached out to people to see if I could get in contact again. Alas, I was too late.
Dave was a good friend growing up and throughout high school. I fondly remember the times of all of us hanging out in the neighborhood, among other things or trying to figure out how we were going to get somewhere, especially to the beach.
RIP my friend, say hello to our mutual friends that have passed before you.
Please accept my condolences, he will not be forgotten.
