I have known Dave for many years in the truck parts business. Dave and I started a jam session on Tuesday nights at Fleetpride shortly after he came to work there. It started with four of us from the shop and grew to about twelve or thirteen other players. Me and Dave had a blast together playing guitar. I will truly miss him.
