My sympathies to David's family. David was a kind, loving, thoughtful, call me when you need me, funny as hell kind of guy who will be terribly missed. He was a rock in our family for many years and I will always be grateful for everything he did for us. Anthony loves you and sends all of his love to his Pops up in Heaven. XO RIP Dave

David was my mentor to me... I got to know him last year when i started working with him here in Florida... we gave me such hope and confidence in myself i was able to finally quit my day job and pursue my passion full time, and he was so supportive of this young guys dream to do more with his life. I got to know david through the work we did together and he was so patient and understanding and so very very kind to someone who was tripping over his own shoe laces.

I just had a beer with him October 30th here i got to thank him for giving me the courage to follow my passion finally, to not be afraid and not worry as much in life about what was gonna happen if i failed. I got to hear stories of his son, his family, his adventures, and i will never forget every single moment this man guided me along the start to my career.

i am so very heartbroken to see this man go because that part of his passion goes with him but i will carry his passion of the job and the adventure with me.

I wish there was more i could do to remember david, but i can at least remember him and what he stood for. If i had never gotten to meet him, i doubt id learn so much over the last year.

May he rest peacefully.

I am very sorry to hear of the passing. Dave was a great friend and an all around good man. I am honored to say that he was a friend, and that I spoke with him just the day before his passing. Dave had an amazing outlook on life and would want people to remember the smile he always had on his face. Till we meet again, keep the music running upstairs till i get there. RIP Dave.
