About	Age 76, on Tuesday, April 20, 2021. Beloved husband of 53 years to Jacqueline "Jacki" (Chiodo) Kushner. Loving father of Craig (the late Patti) and Aaron (Lori) Kushner; and Pap to his five favorite grandchildren, Ashley, Emiley, Craig, Jr., Domenick, and Vanessa. Brother of Donald "Bo" (Marianne) Kushner; and brother-in-law of Eugene (the late Roseann) Chiodo. Also survived by many nieces, nephews, and cousins. Dave grew up in Carnegie, graduated from Chartiers Valley High School in 1962. After high school, Dave ran the world-famous Dave's Barber Shop, located on the North Side, for 51 years. Dave improved the appearance of Pittsburgh's finest gentlemen. From his first location on Federal St., to the second floor of the Martin building, to the corner of James and Forland, David doled out the best haircut in town. His loyal customers traveled to all locations and funded his son's swim club, travel soccer, college, and multiple vehicles. Dave closed the shop in 2016 and Pittsburgh's finest gentlemen aren't the finest anymore. First and foremost, Dave enjoyed spending time with his grandchildren. From attending sporting events to supporting chorus and dance recitals. No distance was too far. He liked playing cards, was artistic, loved cooking and celebrating holiday traditions with his family. Dave had a green thumb and was the family's best gardener. He loved traveling with Jacki and they celebrated their 50th anniversary in Jamaica with the kids.
