William Perego

W. David "Dave" Perrego of Allentown, PA passed away on August 10th at St. Luke's Hospital, Allentown, surrounded by his family.

Born in Newburgh, NY he was the son of the late William and Virginia Perrego of Campbell Hall, NY. He graduated from Washingtonville High School in 1991. He was a member of the National Honor Society and enjoyed playing high school baseball, football, basketball and hockey.

Dave never backed down from an Eagles fan and defended his NY Giants every season. He was on a first name basis with the workers at Yankees Stadium and worshiped his '94 NY Rangers. Most of all, Dave loved his family, friends and his rescue dog, Marley.
