Article from Globe & Mail in 2003... We did not know David in 2003, however, we recently came across this article. When reading it, we could hear David's voice as he scolded his friend. The image of David's eyes rolling, with his lips slightly pursed, as he "slapped" his shopping companion was an image that brought a smile to our faces, as we've been there with him.

What's it like with Dave? Mostly fun with good food, sometimes full of drama, still with good food. The man loved food! He loved watching Coronation Street with a bowl of pasta and a glass of iced tea. He was a true friend. For years, he congratulated me for having the courage to stand up for myself, and in true-Dave style, gave me sh*t and told me to grow a pair the size of watermelons when I didn't. I will definitely miss that! Thank you Dave for letting me be part of your life. You will forever be in my heart.

I remember that day in summer 2008 when I met you. You were so nervous to finally meet Alberto's sister. Since that day we become family. David, my heart is full fill of thousands of fond memories with you, my brother and good friends. I specially enjoyed going to places in Toronto with both of you. This summer... we had a good laugh going to Kensington Market thru the long way! :) lol Thinking of you will always bring a smile to me. Love you always hon!
