Neighbor
We had such fond memories of Dave.One we will always will remember is his wave to us when we would pass in the driveway. A dear man and friend. He was our neighbor for 31 years. We will miss him. But we can have comfort that he is home with our Lord. Don and Linda Patton
My Dad
Dad you were always my unsung hero, the epitome of strength and sacrifice. Even when life kept me busy, and we didnt catch up as much as we would have liked, it was a comfort just knowing you were a phone call away. When life got more painful than I could bare, you always helped me through it, how do I get through this pain of losing you? You were a great father, and a great man, you deserved everything good in life. I love you Dad and I wish I had one more chance to tell you and one more hug, to get one more peice of wise advice. Who do I turn to now when I need strength or when Im fighting with myself? I will miss you Dad for the rest of my days, and will forever love you.
Neighbor
We have had many great memories of Dave over the past 33 years as our neighbor. We will miss him beeping his horn at us everytime he would pass our house. Driving his John Deer tractor up & down the driveway or just stopping by to say hello. He will be dearly missed, but he is no longer in pain or suffering. Our thoughts & prayers go out to Janet and the entire DeHart Family.
We are thankful that you are
We are thankful that you are no longer in pain. We wil miss seeing you every Sunday at church "The Gang"
Neighbor
Growing up next to Mr. DeHart I will remember that he always took time for the niceties. Whether it was just a honking of his horn and a wave as he drove by or more likely stopping just to say hello and ask how we were doing. My thoughts and prayers are with Mrs. DeHart and the entire family. May they find comfort in the fact that he no longer suffers and has taken his place with our Lord.
Daddy Dave
Daddy Dave I only met you a couple of times but loved you always. I am going to miss you, but I know I now have another Angel watching over me.
so sorry for you loss
My heart goes out to Janet and her family in this very difficult time!
