Our deepst condolences to Dave’s friends and family. Dave was a friend and special customer of our train store in Delaware. He visited us often and shared his joy of the hobby with everyone. He always had sweets and treats and we all affectionetly called him the Candy Man. I will remember him as smart, witty “New Englander” with a grin that was only his. May he rest in peace. Julie, Pete, Mike

Dave (pipes) was a great guy who loved model railroading as much as real railroading. Susan I’m so sorry, Carl.

I am so sorry to hear of David’s passing. I knew him through a dental office where I worked and he was a long time patient. He always brought us “tootsie rolls” in a dental office, no less! Always came in the office with his engineer hat on, too. I will miss seeing him. My condolences to his family and friends. Becky Hershey Becker
