You never realize how much you miss someone until they are gone. You were the best grandpa in the whole world but you were more of a father to me than anything else! I will always remember when me and you would yell the lyrics to werewolves of London at the top of our lungs and make grandma mad at us. You never failed to provide and spoil me. You always made sure that I was taken care of for all of my sports; cleats, basketball shoes, track shoes, running shoes everything. Thank you so much for showing me and teaching me how to be a respectful and respected man and to never take anything for granted. Your were my hero and I love you for that.

You will always be my Uncle Dave and I will always be your niece Shannon…some of my very best memories growing up are at your house…you will be forever missed

Dear daddy, When I was a 9 year old boy you took me on a 4 day camping trip and I'll never forget it. We hiked about 5 miles to our spot and set up camp on a sand bar qnd this was the spot you camped at as kid. I remember sleeping with you in your sleeping bag because of the snakes and being so scared and you laughing at me. I pray when my time comes that you are on that sand bar next to the river waiting for me. I love you Dad thank you for all of it!

We all truly and dearly miss you Uncle Dave. You are the only Uncle I’ve ever had and always treated me like one of your very own. I Love you, truly. I sorely miss those summers when I would come and visit and we’d watch the Cleveland Indians while you’re knocking down some beers, lol. The times you’d put me to work in that huge yard of yours sweating my tail off, lool. Good times, lol. You are and will forever remain a great man and I appreciate the memories you and Aunt Christine blessed me with. I’m forever grateful for being able to be a part of your life. Listen to your jokes or just hanging out beside you. You are loved by many because of the man you are. You will greatly be missed and I hope you’re rejoicing with your loved ones pain free. I Love you Uncle Dave. Best Uncle Ever.
