Rick Bertoldo wrote a sympathy message

“Fr. Sears, or "Dave" as he preferred to be called, especially when out, changed my life way back when. He was wise, funny. smart and always had time for you. Even when I called him in the recent past, he'd pick up the phone and say; "What do you want now?" His beliefs were different, especially for a priest and yet I never knew a more compassionate and loving one. See you down the path, my Friend.....”
