Dave and Elenna resided in Shelton for 14 years. Dave was a kind soul, always bringing his sense of humor making those around him happy.
He was steadfast in his love of family and time spent with them. He could spend hours in the kitchen perfecting recipes, though not always speedy, all were delicious. Dave was a son, brother, husband, father, grandfather and friend. No matter if Dave was happy or sad, all who knew him always felt they were loved.
Dave leaves behind his daughter Angela and her husband Matt King, children Parker and Jameson, his son David “Fred” and Katie, son Leo.
He is survived by his father William and predeceased by his mother Coralee. He leaves his four brothers and their wives, Bill and Shannon, Bob and Katrina, Jim and Stacy, and John, as well as, many nieces and nephews, his brothers-in-law Milton and Cathy, and Deacon Anastasios and Sofia.
