Dave was a devout New York Yankees fan and could regularly be seen wearing his favorite team t-shirt. If you were lucky enough to engage in conversation, you could almost guarantee sports would be involved. His sense of humor was dry and perfectly timed. Dave and Marilyn enjoyed spending time with friends and family, trivia nights, jeopardy, live music, the theater, and traveling the world together. Dave will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who knew him.
