To Dave's family: With sadness in my heart, please accept my deepest sympathies to you and yours. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
I just finished talking on the phone with Jim Baab who informed me of Dave's passing. In the Baltic school system, at the time, we enjoyed a unique experience in that grades one through twelve were all in the same building so we had contact, nearly everyday, with all members of all classes for many years. Thanks for the memories Dave. May the good Lord bless and keep you and yours.

To Dave's family: I just learned of Dave's passing. Gary, Dave & I grew up in Baltic and went to school together. I am thankful for those early years of friendship. We obviously went separate ways in our life but the memories of that friendship are always there. We pray for the Lord God Almighty to give you His Comfort, Peace & Strength to keep pressing on today and the days ahead. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.
