“My condolences to you all! We have appreciated Dave’s pizza and his passion for our nation (and her military) for years. May the God of all peace comfort you.” 

“Dave was one of the most patriotic people around and donated to so many youth groups. He loved flea markets & we exchanged info on them all the time. Dave was always respectful to law enforcement and I’ve always considered Dave a friend. He will be sorely missed and I pray for his family’s strength getting through this sad time.”
