I'm so sorry to hear of Dave's passing. I hadn't seen him or Brenda in years. I have many memories of being at their home when I was little always watching football games. They were so kind to me. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers as well as my mother Liz's during this difficult time.

Brenda, I am so saddened to learn of Dave’s passing. He was a quiet , calm presence when we worked together on Family Medicine. I was lucky to have seen him a couple of times since retirement, & always had a catch up of stories on what we were doing. May all the memories of your lives together provide you peace in the coming days. Thinking of you & your family. Rest easy Dave.

Brenda and family, I am so sorry to hear of your loss, Dave certainly was bigger than life and you always knew when he was around. I loved hearing his laugh when I would walk into Ward 6, it was infectious. He was a very dear and kind person that will certainly be missed everyday. Sending you love and hugs, Peggy

I remember heading for Dave's Mom's house on Horsfield St. or his Dad's on Park Ex and going swimming at Lily Lake or going to the Riviera Restaurant or the Pier One eating steamed clams and drinking Zombies. We never did make it to Soldier Field in Chicago but we did see the Bruins beat the Candiens in Montreal and then the annual St. Patrick's Day Parade. Nothing like suddenly getting handed an Alpine Beer through a shower curtain unexpectedly just to name a few memories. The happiest I ever saw him was the day he married Brenda, a wise decision. So with Fondest Memories, He will always be My Best Man.

Always enjoyed running into Dave at work or out and about with Brenda. Always walked away feeling better having shared a conversation with him. First met Dave when working as a student on ward 6 in 1982. Seems like yesterday. The staff there were fantastic and Dave was number 1.
