My deepest condolences to the entire Nath family. There's not much to add here in reference to what we already know about Dave; he was a Good Guy. I remember selling him a car, don't ask me the year because we were young. Within a week the next time I saw him, he handed me a $20 bill that he found buried in the seats. Prayers of peace, Elaine, to you and your daughters🙏

We are so sorry to hear of the passing of "Davey" as dad (Uncle Butch) always called him. All the boys got an "ey" added to the end of their name by my dad lol. So that's what we always called him. I'm sure dad welcomed him home with a "Hey Davey!" He was much loved and will be sadly missed. We don't get to spend lots of time together but family is always most important. We will miss him! Know that our thoughts and prayers are with you Elaine and the kids, grandkids and Uncle Jack and whole family. Love, Mickey and Denny Slaney

Dave was my best friend growing up in Mt. Oliver. I threw a touchdown pass to Dave for the only score as we (Mt Oliver midget football) won 6-0. My sincere condolences as I cannot go to viewing or Mass because we are going to Cleveland for the weekend. Sincerely, Steve Froehlich.
