Dave! My friend! I cannot believe you are gone and it has taken me this long to write. I have reflected on your life …starting from high school when we used to draw and I was so amazed at your tagging and drawings! Such a quiet kindred spirit and realistic man. You always saw good in life. Yet you knew how to celebrate life to the fullest with honesty and compassion. Your laughter and spirit always rings true. Big Flip. Adigato gozayimas 🫶 Thank you for filling my life with hope and joy. Love you Dave❤️

My heart truly broke when I received the news of your passing. All the years I've known you, you have always been such a great friend and always had a smile on your face. I'm so thankful I got to spend time with you a couple of months ago when you were here in Houston. I'm really going to miss your visits. I love you and you will be missed dearly.

There are no words! My heart goes out to the family and his children! I was blessed to have you as a friend and I will miss you all the rest of the days of my life, I only find comfort in knowing that I'll see you in heaven once more! Rest easy Flip and thank you for all your kindness during your time on this earth!
