Sorry for your loss I will always remember all the good times with Dave
We will so miss stopping in the driveway, scatching the dogs ears and talking about everything and anything. He was always there if we had a question or needed a helping hand.
I have had the pleasure of meeting you so many years ago and we became friends and golf buddies. We laughed together so much at times it was hard to breathe. I know that everyone who knew you was blessed to have met you. My heart is broken for the your family who lost such a beautiful soul. I know we will play golf together again. Father keep our brother safe until we are together again. Truly blessed to have been able to call him my friend!!!!
Sincere condolences from Australia. 😢 I was sad to hear that my cousin had died. Happy childhood memories of when our fathers would get together. Aunt Doris made a lovely meal and then the adults played cards. Phyllis and I really liked the player piano in the basement! And I remember a visit that imcluded Wayne’s family to Fantasy Island. Thirty-one years ago my children met his children when my family visited the US. That is the last time that I saw him.

Bowzer-RIP old friend……
we shared so many great times together, your constant smile and chill demeanor were something that I never took for granted.
That smile-I remember you pulling up to my house with that cute Porsche, wearing a big smile for making THAT purchase.
That simile-I remember when you started dating Kathy while you both worked at the Red Barn, boy were you smiling at THAT stroke of good fortune!
That smile- I remember when you guys got married, boy were you smiling on THAT day!
That smile, we all saw it often, and it affected all who came in contact with you.
So here I sit, reliving the many adventures and laughs that we shared….and I smile…..
Kathy- sorry I won’t be able to make it back to say goodbye to Dave-here is a huge virtual hug from CO.
