Dave will be missed. He was our neighbor and friend. I will always remember his advice and then him noting that it was an opinion and a free opinion, so take it for what it is worth. Our kids grew up next his younger boys and we had some good times, camping down on the Ohio River too. Dave always claimed to be hard of hearing, but I think he heard a lot more than he ever let on. He was a very good person and I know that he is missed by our family, and his former community of Brookside Estates. Our sympathy and Love goes out to his family.
