Debbie,
I am so sorry for your loss. I can’t believe this happened, I just saw Dave a few weeks ago. He was a one of a kind person. He had a sharp mind, quick wit and personality that could fill a room. I always looked forward to seeing him when home. The entire Decker clan on the west coast is mourning with you. Much love from Seattle.

Our sincere sympathy to family & friends. David was our neighbor, as we (the Majewski famiy) lived on Arlington Ave. We live in Michigan for the summer months, so we missed the funeral. Blessings to all.
