So many of us who were lucky to have met Dave in business immediately became friends. He had a winning smile, intelligence, passion, and impeccable knowledge of wine! As a fellow Canadian, I loved to talk about Toronto with him and chat about our shared "dads'" experiences in the RCAF. Fly high Dave, soar among the heavens, and we will remember you always. 

My deepest sympathies to June, Jill and all the family. Dave loved you all very deeply. He will be missed. 
I remember the times we all got together when Jill and I were growing up.  In particular I am grateful for the day when Dave and June took my folks to Santa Barbara for the day so I could prepare for my parents’ 25 wedding anniversary celebration and then Dave and June brought them to the party at just the right time! 
Much love and gentle hugs,
Pamela Green

My Uncle Dave was and will always be my hero since I was 5 years old, cmon,I played on his slot machine for hours, I watched Top Gun and Caddy Shack on his big screen, we cruised in his Corvette with Sailing playing on the radio by Christopher Cross, Oh Yeahh, he took me to the hockey hall of fame in his airplane and I have a Maple Leaf puck on my desk 40 years later. The absolute real deal, he taught me life is for living and he did it  like most dream of. I'm so lucky to have spent all that time with him,  I am gonna miss u.  All my love and respect. Love u Aunt June.

As a youth I saw David as a family role model for his lesser cousins, like me, to aspire to emulate from afar. In his later years we reconnected with E-mail and Face-time to share family history and memories and bemoan the inabilities of our favoured NHL teams to win the Stanley Cup.  He became the older brother I never had. I enjoyed those years. I hope he did too.

I’ll always remember the night Karol and I spent at Dave and June’s along with Karen and Karl. We spent the evening listening to off color country music and laughed like hell.  Alcohol was involved. 

Dave and his company was always ahead of the data processing curve and his ability to develop programs   were critical to  the lending operations of Transamerica and Associates Corp. He was a key to boosting my career and I will always be grateful for our business relationship and our ongoing friendship. I already miss him!

We have so many great memories of Dave and June from being original buyers and becoming neighbors at Fairway Hills in the Ridges.  We got together often for Happy hours or dinners at their home or ours.  Dave loved Bombay Sapphire martini's and Jim was always glad to join him and enjoy a martini.  Dave also set up our computer and was always very helpful with it.  We love and miss you, Dave.

I'll always remember Dave for the red Corvette and the ride in the plane.

Dave and June have been a wonderful part of our lives for over 40 years.  Dave was always quite a character.

The funniest memory of Dave I have was when he flew my husband,  Mike, into the Ontario airport without clearance!  Mike had to be at a baseball game and they were running late so he literally landed the plane, Mike jumped out, climbed the fence to our car, and off Dave went.

He will be deeply missed.  Watch out heaven, he’s on the loose.

We have shared so many dinners trips and memories with Dave and June,  Dave was a favorite golfing buddy with my husband Pete.  May you Rest In Peace.
