I am so sorry for your loss. Dave was a wonderful, caring man. I loved seeing him at all the sporting events and walking down Pine Lake Road. I will never forget him sitting in my garage with Nancy and the "crew", talking and having adult beverages until the early morning hours. He will be truly missed❤
