Bev:
As others have expressed there are few words to say that can ease your pain for Dave’s loss.
I know that Dave and I had such good times meeting for coffee at Tom Thumb every week. As a neighbor we had good times playing golf and shooting pool at the senior center( we were there not as seniors) but to have some fun! as Romeo men.:) I drive by Tom Thumb and think about our good times.
