Dave and I spent many hours playing euchre on the internet. He could always sense if I was having a bad day, and by the time we finished playing cards, he had me laughing. He will be missed by his many internet euchre friends. We all looked forward to playing on his table. He always made the euchre table a fun place to be. Love to his family, I know he was proud of all of you, and took great pride in talking about his grandchildren. Sincerely, Cindy Dobbins - Posted by: Cindy Dobbins (Friend) on: Apr 23, 2005

David was a kind loving man who I met through my best friend, his daughter Karen. He was like a father to me. Many times that Karen and I hung around together, David was always there to joke with us, tease us and try to steal our goodies we had with our "movie nights" at his house in Brandon Manitoba. I sure hope that David is now , looking at us and smiling , and able to have all the ice cream Heaven can feed him! Much love to you David! I will never forget you! - Posted by: Betty McKay (Friend) on: Apr 13, 2005
