    Dave was one of the contractors who would come and do work at our condo complex. He was a nice man. He and I would often stop and chat. All the owners are very saddened to hear that he died, and we pray that he is at peace. Our condolences to his family. You were all very lucky to have such a kind man as a father/brother/son. God bless.

    We&&single&&re very sorry to hear of Dave&&single&&s passing. We were always happy to see him on his many visits to Nova Scotia. Every time I look at our kitchen floor and bathroom that he renovated, it will always remind me of him and his great work. He even showed up unexpectedly for our 40th anniversary. He said that he was just out for a ride on his bike (Ontario to Nova Scotia). He will be missed a lot.

    Lots of Love and prayers to his family from one of his 1st Cousins.

    My sincere condolence to all the Staffen Family on the passing of Dave. I originally lived at Seaforth during my school years ending in 1965 & attended Bethel Bible Church with my parents (Orval & Florence Greer). My job relocated me to Hamilton in 1971 where I married my wife Carol & attended Philpott Memorial Church ever since. I have talked several times with Dave at Philpott & also know we are mutual friends with Ken & Arlene McCowan at Brucefield. My thoughts & prayers are with you at this difficult time.
