OUR COMMUNITY HAS LOST A WONDERFUL FRIEND

DAVE SAKWA

May 24, 1924 — February

19,

2012

Dave was the patriarch of his extended family, a devoted

husband of 61 years to his dear wife, Joyce, and the loving father of

Randi & Stuart Sakwa, Rebecca & Gary Sakwa, and Kimberly & Jeffrey Sakwa.

Dave's dedication to his family will be a towering source of strength and comfort
for them as they mourn his loss. May his extended family be comforted

amongst the mourners of Zion and Israel, and may he be

remembered for a blessing by those who knew him.
