Dave was my manager and President at Dinzler when I started as a young salesman, and he was one of the best men I had ever worked with in my Sales profession. He was a mentor and friend for me when I was a younger man and trying to find my way. I Stayed in the field for other dealers after Dinzler and I would return to visit him from time to time and he always treated me with kindness and respect. I send my prayers to his family and I will always remember him as the leader and mentor he was to me. I know he loved his family dearly. God's Peace and Prayers.
