Condolence: The very sad news of David's passing just reached us at our Florida winter home. We were so fortunate to have become neighbours of the fine Lennon family when were were transferred from Montreal in 1970. One could not ask for better neighbours who also became friends. David's welcoming manner, always polite, always willing to help, clearly demonstrated the loving family that parents Joan and John had created and nurtured so well. It also seems clear that David and Helen provided the same superb level of love, learning, coaching and togetherness to their own children. No one can explain or understand why somebody so wonderful as David had to be taken from us so soon, but perhaps it is because his qualities are needed elsewhere, to somehow help nurture in others what is, sadly, so rarely seen. Our hearts and best wishes go out to all of David's family and friends who must now cope with his all-too-soon departure. May his love live on in all of you, and in others whom he will surely touch in his new life.

Condolence: So much love.
Just so much love, shared, doubled, multiplied, given freely to everyone.
We shared some special times and have great memories of our time(s) with Helen, Dave and the family.
You are all continuously in our thoughts and prayers.
We send our love and cyber hugs from Yorkshire, London and Durham (England)

Condolence: As a little girl I remember heading East from Calgary alongside my Dad for visits to his extensive family! Somehow among the many kisses and buttertarts Dave (& Helen) always seemed to make a connection with me. One of my favorite trips was going to their weddding, where even on that busy day Dave gave my Dad and I a big hug. He was a great example of love and laughter - I hope you have the strength to carry on the joy he gave so many. Sending strength and love from the West - Katie & Family

Condolence: My sister Patsy married David's brother Jeff and that is how I met the Lennon Family. David immediately struck me as a kind, friendly, humorous fellow with an equally charming wife in Helen. As the years passed, the family grew and it was always a pleasure to see David and his family at the gatherings. He made us laugh, he made us relax and he brought a certain quality to these gatherings that made them all that much more special. David, I will certainly miss you. Thanks for the laughs and your friendship. My deepest sympathies to Helen and your family and all that those who loved you and admired your special qualities. May you rest in Peace. GOD Bless you . Linda

Condolence: My heartfelt condolences to Helen,family and all his friends.

I haven't seen Dave,
In so many years,
That smile of his,
Brings on the tears,
A smile, you could spot from a mile away,
A smile that would warm the coldest of days,
That smile of Dave's,
Lives on in all that knew him,
May our memories be filled with joy and laughter,
In honor of Dave in the ever after.

Condolence: Our deepest sympathies to Helen and the kids. It is a true measure of how special Dave was when one looks at his wonderful wife and those great kids. Although it is tough, try to remember all the good times because with Dave there were lots of them
