So sorry to hear of Dave's passing. My thoughts are with Suzanne, kids, and the rest of his friends and family. It was quite a few years ago that I worked with Dave, but he left a lasting impression on me. I am lucky to have known him, he was a wonderful person.

David was our adopted son when he was growing up, as he spend so much time hanging around our 2 boys Jason and Ken, here is our home. We enjoyed his quiet sense of humour and his politeness. We, Kim and Linda Tinkler, wish to send our condolences to Suzanne and the rest of the Finch families. May David rest in peace. Remember do not mourn the death of David, but to celebrate his life

I’m so very crushed and overwhelmed by Dave’s passing, and offer all the respect and love to his family. I’ve known Dave for many years, we used to be so very close and I enjoyed him so much. He was such a unique and an incredible soul with the best sense of humour I’ve ever known. In these last few months I was finally able to contact him and try to re connect with each other, but I was too late. I have an overwhelming amount of guilt surrounding my heart, and it hurts so badly. I only hope Dave knew I loved and cared for him, and how much he meant to me, as I wasn’t fortunate enough to tell him to his face, but I did say so the last time I talked to him by phone. I’ve missed him for years, and will always miss and think of him for my lifetime. I’m a better man for being fortunate enough to have had him in my life, thank you so much for the memories my brother, my friend.

Dear David, The 3 pictures are the last great ones I took of you, all very special places for you too: 1) Kahana Sands, Maui (Feb.13), 2) Wascana Lake (Jul.1) 3) Finch Nest (Jul.30) (The following is a compilation of the texts I sent to David leading up to his passing) You've been a pillar of strength and understanding throughout the 45 years I've known you. After my 3-month visit, it was heartbreaking for me to leave you on Sep.30, knowing that I'd never see you again. I wouldn't have traded my summer of visiting you for anything, and I can live on in peace knowing that I got to tell you directly how much you've meant to me all our lives and how much I hate knowing that I can no longer talk to you about anything, from family dynamics to the latest work you're doing on someone's vehicle. You are special and have forever been a fixture of reliability, understanding and compassion. I'm struggling with work, still homesick leaving you and everyone behind. I wanted so much to be by your side. However I knew you were surrounded by wonderful family and friends nearby. You should have no regrets. There is nothing but great memories in my mind and feeling privileged and lucky for having you in my life. Without you, Mom and Dad would have sold the Finch Nest many years before this year. Thank you David for all the hard work you put into its maintenance and joy we had there. You helped give our flock a sanctuary escape from the everyday. What a great surprise to hear from you on Thanksgiving Monday (Oct.12) I was thrilled to hear your voice with Thanksgiving wishes, and am so thankful that Suzi phoned me to give us that moment, the last opportunity to hear my baby brother. I wish you could speak to me, but I know it's almost impossible. I also know you love, respect and admire me too. You've said that to me several times over the years. Even though you'd like to say it one more time, just know that I know. You'll always be an amazing brother, no matter what you say or don't say now. I know the end is near and you would not want to continue or be seen like this. You are ready to be at peace and I pray for you that you'll soon be in a better place, and we all can move on with the grieving and healing process. If you wake up one more time, know that you are leaving all of us as better people for having had you in our lives. You'll never be forgotten, and we're all proud of you. I'm so proud that you are/were my brother. I'll always miss and love you David. We'll meet up again someday and you can take me on a long bike ride in the Kinookimaw hills or along the Last Mountain Lake railroad bed where I can be typically clumsy and fall. I know you'll just smile and wait for me to get back up and catch up to you, my daredevil angel who loves the speed and wind in his ears and can fix anything. Godspeed David. Forever your loving big brother, Danny xoxoxo
