“It’s hard to put words for what Dave meant to me. I remember the feelings I always had around him were acceptance and encouragement. He treated me like family Always had time to talk and push me towards dreams. He was a high level thinker and I always appreciated him helping me see my greater potential. Tonna, you will always be apart of my family and there is nothing I can say to make things better, there will always be a place in your heart for Dave that no one can touch, and that is special.”
