Dave was a good friend to my late husband Douglas Edington and myself. He was a great man and always had a way to make us laugh. I remember the draw of his words. The way he laughed and would shake his head when he talked. When Doug got sick he was there cheering him up. He will be sadly missed and Heaven has gained a hero.
