Dave will be remembered for many things, most notably his avid faith, his love of singing, and the easy way he made friends of most everyone he met. He loved photography and was a skilled cook. He was a romantic at heart. Always ready with a joke, a funny story or just a friendly greeting, Dave endeared himself by putting the people around him at ease and making them feel special. He was generous of spirit and shared the best of himself with loved ones and friends, old and new.
