I am so sorry to hear about Dave. My deepest condolences to his family and friends. Dave was much more than a co-worker, he was a friend and will always be remembered. - Posted by: Alan Campbell (colleague) on: Feb 13, 2012

David's sister Nancy was one of my best friends. I spent a lot of time at their house growing up in Montreal. David was a quiet type of guy, but always nice to us. We also went to St. Laurent High together. David & Nancy's Mum was a wonderful teacher and actually taught my brother (deceased). A great loss for his family and friends. - Posted by: Carolyn Goodman (Friend of David's sister Nancy) on: Feb 12, 2012
