Condolence From: Pete Cecile
My deepest condolences to the family. I have known Dave from the first time I had visited my good friend, Dennis Ducharme, about 25 years ago. Dave was always friendly, helpful and ready with a joke and a glass of draft. My most vivid memories are of the annual Triple D golf tournament. Dave was always reminding people that it was the comradery that mattered most and not your final score. He was a hard worker and a great man who will be missed by many.
Pete Cecile, Belle River.
