July 22, 1955 - December 13, 2023
Received this from a 1974 grad
Hi Linda, I’m a 1974 graduate from BHS. Googling I recently found another graduate, Dave Cerbin, class of 1973 that had passed away Dec 2023. No one shared his information. I just found it like I said, googling him, he was a friend. I don’t know if you want to post this information or not he had just attended class of 1973 50 year class reunion earlier that year. He was on the football team and had a lot of friends at BHS so I know people would want to know about his passing. I couldn’t find an obituary for him. They just had a memorial service.
Hi everyone! My husband Dave loved his years at Dobbs and Gategourmet. We're having a celebration of life for him on March 22 in Washington, D.C. Here is a link to the Evite, if you'd like to attend. Also, there's a way for you to send us a short video of a memory of Dave, if you care to share one. We'll include it in the videos we'll play at the celebration. Love to you all!
NOTE: I did find out that he resided in Florida and they had moved to the Washington D.C. area recently. According to a post he died in his sleep. No other information at this time.
