Dear Rhonda and boys: We are sincerely sorry to hear of Dave's passing. There will be lots of reminiscing and laughter and stories once Dave met his friends who have passed before. We loved Dave so ..his wit, his humour, his knowledge. And man could he dance! You were a very strong force for him Rhonda and though you could both disagree everyone knew the love and respect you had for one another. Our hugs and supporting thoughts and prayers are with you. Love Tim and Cathy

Rhonda were so very sorry for your loss. You two made such a beautiful couple. My favourite memory of you both was the night we were at the legion and we’re all having a great time. We came out and the two of you were having a snowball fight in the parking lot. The joy and laughter was amazing We laughed so hard and before we knew it we were all throwing snow. We’re truly so very sorry for your loss. To you, your children and loved ones our deepest sympathy. Hugs. Dave and Beth

Rhonda & Family!
Dave & I are so sorry to hear the news about Dave. I will always remember how kind Dave was to my Mom on the rehab floor @ the hospital when she had her stroke. Those were very long months for her & he showed her how to maneuvre her wheelchair with ease & made us all laugh quite a few times. We will miss that smile but I am sure he is laughing it up in Heaven as I speak. Rest in Peace !

Rhonda, Derek, Darren and Darcy and families, Gord and I are so very sorry to hear this sad news. I'll always remember the fun we had in Dominican Republic and he and I riding in the cart pulled by the donkey. Several years ago on NYE at the arena he got dancing to the song RESPECT, and I don't think I've ever laughed like I did that night. His wit was only matched by his dance moves. Our thoughts are with all of you. Rest easy Dave, you'll be missed.
