Our family sends condolences on Dave’s Butterball passing. I always enjoyed hearing from him on facebook and know how much he loved you and his family. Little Sara was his pride and joy. At least he is at peace and not suffering.

It was a shock to hear of Dave’s passing. Growing up as cousins, he was as close to a brother that I ever had. I always enjoyed the times we played together. I last saw Dave when we were both stationed in Germany in the early 70’s. My heartfelt condolences to Nora, Helen and Debra and the rest of his family.

Losing a loved one in death is difficult to endure. However, you can trust our loving Creator to heal your broken hearts. – Ps. 147:3. Until that time, continue to cherish fond memories you made over the years.
