He was loved and respected by all his tenants, and treated them with such kindness.
He had so many friends near and far, and there where so many times his family would run into someone that knew him, and we were always told, what we already knew, what a terrific man he was.
He was proceeded by his parents, and his son Michael, who he missed dearly.
He is survived by his wife Charlene (Young) Dannin, his daughter Jennifer Dannin, and his son Victor Dannin (Sheri).
He cherished his granddaughters Samantha ( Lehto) Dannin, her husband Eric, and Jessica Dannin.

We knew David as young married couples through his brother- in law. David always was a great guy even way back when. We knew about him over the years and stayed in touch with Charlene. He was the best husband and father, grandfather and great grandfather. So very sorry for your great loss, our condolences to Charlene, and the entire family. Marion & Sandy

My Cousin David was a special man of integrity, strength and kindness. From the time I first met him when I was around seven, he was always very special to me and I looked for forward to seeing him when we could get together. He was a wonderful dear friend to my Dad who he always respected as Uncle Elliot. My heart breaks for Charlene, Jennifer and the entire family. May you find peace and strength in the coming days.. Love Cousin Diane
