for Dave Housel
April 18, 2011
Dave was my first cousin and I had just tried unsuccessfully to email him so did a google search and am so saddened to find his obituary. I have fond childhood memories of him. HE was cutest of all my cousins. I was just emailing him to tell him my brother had died....oh my. My best to you Sue and Heather. Kathie Housel Bogue in New Bern, NC

Dave was a good boss and friend. He stood up for me and helped me alot when I was younger. Its a shame to see him go and I'll definitely never forget him.

I met Dave at our neighborhood Richfield gas station. We were both going to Fullerton College and I got a job working with Jesse and Dave at the station while Dave was interning there. He and I pumped gas for 33 cents then. I have many fond memories of the fun and pranks young men get into at a gas station. Dave and I also worked under many cars together and bruised lots of knuckles and had some great times. Sometimes I think this was the greatest job I ever had and Dave is part of that memory. I also recall when Dave met Sue and we double dated several times. Sharing in your loss and our condolences to the family, Gary and Nancy Lawrence.

I grew up with Dave, lived just down the street, we were close friends and spend a lot of great times together thru the time he moved to California to attend college and "work with his uncle". We kept in touch thru the years, Dave was just a great person and enjoyed his family and work. Dave will be missed. Bob Blain {Rochester NY}

Dave will always hold a special place in our hearts. I feel fortunate to have known him. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Dave was not only an excellent mechanic, but a friend to all who knew him at the station. I'll never forget his high energy level and enthusiasm for work and play. Sue, I don't think 5 minutes ever went by before he would say something nice about you. We live in a wonderful neighborhood up here in Fullerton, and having Dave at the corner made it so convenient whenever we had a problem with our cars. I am truly going to miss you,Dave.
Your friend,

I've lost track of a lot of my high school classmates, and Dave was one of them; but it sounds as if he had a good life and good friends.

Dave was a good friend and an honest man. The world will be a poorer place without him. God bless you all and give you comfort.
