Dear Anne, Wendell, Debbie, Jerry, Kenny, and Eileen,
I am deeply saddened to learn of Dave's passing. He was such a large part of my childhood, youth and adult life.It was a friendship that I am happy to say endured time, distance, and differing opinions for over five decades. I will miss our Christmas and summertime visits on Acadia Street where we exchanged pleasantries and barbs. Time goes by too fast, and oh to have one more pitch from you on your backyard field, to sell you one more 8-0 hockey pool, or to shake your hand hello or good-bye at your door. Farewell my friend and for your sake Go Red Sox!
Sincerely,
Ryan

Dear Ann, Kenny, Debbie, Wendell, Jerry and Eileen:
Sorry to hear about Dave. I have all good memories of him. I loved when he played ball with us on the ball field next to your house (not exactly the field of dreams with all the concrete and rocks sticking out--but a field that certainly would hone your reflexes!)I liked too when he refereed the floor hockey games at Mount Carmel gym and taking us kids to the Sydney Forum. Dave just made things more fun--and always taught something in the process. I remember when he helped Kenny and I prepare for a test or two (he had more luck teaching Kenny). Dave definitely added to an enjoyable childhood. As someone said in a previous condolence: "Dave didn't suffer fools gladly;" his razor sharp wit was matched only by his quick athletic reflexes. Dave sometimes reminded me of Archie Bunker--only smarter. My keenest memory is when I bragged to him I killed a sparrow with a rock (weren't we always throwing rocks back then)and he pointed out in the nicest way that that may have not been a good thing to do. What he said and how he said it made a lasting impression. I am not writing Dave's eulogy here, but do want to point out that he was an influential person in my life. Thank you Dave! Tom

We, my daughter Kim, and grandson Maxwell are very saddened at the passing of Uncle Dave. We always looked forward to visiting both him and Aunt Ann in New Waterford. He always had so many funny stories to tell , and hated for them to end. Now the 5 brothers are together, and they will be putting "their dukes up", but in a fun way. Our sincere condolences to all the family.

I had the pleasure of meeting Dave and Anne through my best friend and their daughter, Eileen. Dave was a gentleman. He was smart, insightful, kind with a sharp sense of humour. He didn’t suffer fools easily! He loved all his children... that was easy to see. Not one more than the other. If anything, he was fair and just. Having lost my dad, I know the void this creates. One not to be filled but with cherished memories.
To Eileen, Neil, Anna, Anne and all the MacGibbon clan - please accept my love and condolences.
Regards,
Nancy
