Dearest Dottie, Donna, and Ian, It is heartbreaking to lose Dave. I'm so sorry and pray God's peace and comfort for you all. I can't help but remember the happy times being with Dave and you all. Hot sticky family reunions, get-togethers His teddy bear hugs, knowing he cared for all of your corney family; warts and all, his dry humor, and no Christmas was complete without his homemade banana bread!!! As I think of this sorrow and great loss now facing you; I know you find comfort in remembering the promises of Our Lord Jesus; and let us remember that great old church hymn, "When we all get to Heaven"; yes what a day of rejoicing that will be !!! We love you family We're here if you need us.

I never knew Mr. Dauphinee personally, only through his sons Dustin and Ian who I grew up playing hockey with. I will never forget how much pride and passion he showed for his sons everytime they were on the rink. Both of his sons are excellent men and I'm glad Mr. Dauphinee finally gets to be with Dustin in heaven. Thoughts and prayers to all of the Dauphinee family.

From the first time I met David as my SPD Field Training Officer in March of 1988, to the days of serving with David on the SPD ERT Team, I knew David was a warrior. David was a man of Honor, and man of Respect and Integrity, and a great human being. Over the years we had each other's back on many, many occasions. Thank you for looking out for me, being a mentor, and making me laugh...God he could make me laugh. The world is a sadder place without men like David Dauphinee....I will miss you my Brother in Blue.
