Ruthie, you and your family are in my prayers. I had the pleasure of working for Dave at BCBSNM. When he left, the job was never the same. He was the easiest person to like and loved sharing stories of you, his sons, and of course the grandchildren. New Mexico hasn't been the same since you both moved. He will be missed.

Ruthie, I am so sorry for your loss. Dave was the kindest man I ever had the pleasure to work for. Once he left BCBSF, it just became a job. All the sparkle was gone.
If you're ever in town and there's anything Wally or I can do for you, give us a call, we're in the phone book.
