  2. Oh Dave, you fought so hard and held on for as long as you could, until you were simply too tired to keep going. You will be deeply missed 💔

    Thank you for being such a wonderful neighbor. I’ll always remember how you were the very first to welcome us into the court — that kindness meant so much.
