Dave was a very quiet man until he had a couple drinks of whiskey then he loved to tell jokes and make everyone laugh. He spent 27 years with the love of his life Debbie and he spent that time making her laugh and playing pranks on her. He couldn't be trusted not to be hid away to frighten her or tell her fibs to frighten her. He was a great father and grandfather and stepfather and a friend to everyone. He always had a smile and was the type of person you talked to and could make you laugh. You always felt better after talking to him.
He will be missed by his coworkers for all the laughs he gave them.
His family have many memories to laugh and cry about. His time in this world was short but he sure made a difference. He bought so much happiness to so many. He will always be our laughing Angel.
