Andrew Biazis wrote a sympathy message

“Very sad news to hear of Dave’s passing. Will miss his hearty laugh and big radiant smile. He was always very giving, gracious and very unselfish in always offering advice to help people out around him. I will have very fond memories of him and when a Mustang convertible, especially red, passes me in the future…or an impossible tennis shot down the line goes for a winner, it will bring a smile to my face knowing Dave would approve;)) God bless him…..”
