My thoughts and prayers are with Grace, and the entire family. Dave was like a second dad to me, a mentor, helped train me to usher, and my sponsor/fellowship friend when I joined the United Methodist Church. I left the church for about 10 years, and when I returned, Dave was once again my sponsor. I wouldn't have had it any other way. He was a true inspiration, and will always be remembered. A true role model.
