Todd and entire Denton family,

The passing of a parent is very sad, but the memories of that parent will stay with you and your family forever. It's amazing how long the list of great memories really is. Hold onto those memories during this sad time and remember to celebrate all the good memories these coming days, weeks, months and years. Smile every time someone mentions David name, he touch allot of lives.

Many years ago, I enjoyed very early conversations with David at Eastlake Athletic Club while we attempted to stay in "shape". Such a nice man. My sympathies to all the family.

Dave was a man who truly was one of a kind. He could make you laugh in the most serious moment and yet he was a man with a huge love. I will miss him and send my warmest hugs to Jo and family. Rest In Peace Dear One.

To Jo and the kids, our sincere condolences. Every time I came up from Florida, Dave was one of the first people I came to see. I will truly miss him. There was no finer Judge, magistrate, or human being as Dave. Again our sincere condolences.

So sad to read of Dave's passing. I always admired him for his intellect, accomplishments, and humor. But more for his willingness to befriend those who might be below his "station". He didn't have to prove a damned thing to anyone! Was hoping we might see that 80 mark together, but not to be. Save me a cold one Dave, I'll be along soon......only just not quite yet .May God Bless him and be with his loved-ones in their time of loss.

Words can't describe the sadness that fills my heart. I got to work with Dave for three years when he was Magistrate and I grew to love the ole fart. He even drove to Plymouth so he could marry my husband and I. He was an amazing man and I am grateful I had him in my life! Lots of love, hugs and support to the family!
