In memory of David R. Twigg, Rachel Gaghan lit a candle

My condolences, Cricket. Dave was a sweet guy, one of my favorites.

Dave was a great work mate. I loved his ship models! Thoughts and prayers for all Dave's family and friends.

My condolences to the Twigg family. Dave was an all round good guy, we worked together in the Product Engineering department at Rubbermaid for many years. I'll always remember his wry wit and good natured sense of humor Greg Terek

RIP My fellow aviation enthusiast. Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I’ve climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth Of sun-split clouds, – and done a hundred things You have not dreamed of – wheeled and soared and swung High in the sunlit silence. Hov’ring there, I’ve chased the shouting wind along, and flung My eager craft through footless halls of air… Up, up the long, delirious burning blue I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace Where never lark, or ever eagle flew – And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.

Sorry to hear about Dave's passing. We were good friends in high school. Michael Bowman

We are so sorry for your loss. Thelma you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers and if you need anything please let us know. God has gained another angel. Dave will always be looking over you and your family.

David was in my in twelfth-grade art class. I remember him as easy-going, kind and creative. He, Kathy C. and I painted a mural in the snack bar of the school's gymnasium. We spent a long time working on that project and the three of us shared many laughs. To all of his family, I send condolences. May the Lord bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you and give you peace.

So many wonderful memories with you all, the cruise, darts, dinners/ picnics together. I miss picking on him.

I would like to offer my most sincere condolences. I will miss our friendship ?

On behalf of the members, both past and present l, of the Winchester Industrial Golf League, we express our deepest condolences and heartfelt sympathies to Thelma and the entire Twigg family. Dave's easy-going demeanor belied a competitive drive when competition set it in. His love of golf, great sense of humor, and respect for his fellow members will be surely missed. We are sure he'll give St. Peter a run for his money on the back nine... Godspeed and Rest well, Dave. Sincerely, Terrence Glackin President WIGL
