"I am so very sad to hear about Dave. He was such a wonderful roommate for Dad while he was at Good Sam - always looking out for him and worried that he wasn't eating enough. I am thankful that our paths crossed, however briefly, and we got to discover the many connections our families share. Lynda, I'm glad we had a chance to visit at the recent memorial service at Good Sam. My prayers are with your family. God bless you all."
