We were saddened to read of Dave´s passing.
When we saw him this past August, while he faced challenges moving about, he appeared healthy and energetic. He spoke fondly of the camaraderie of the folks in your new community and your future there. We were surprised to read the announcement.
The first time we met Dave, he shared his "Skerryvore book".
His book was an enlightening and appreciated read for newcomers. The book is an excellent chronicle of the area´s history and he was able to document his (significant and selfless) participation in the growth of the community without tainting the product with self-promotion. At times we still revisit it.
Many times he offered suggestions on our `projects´ or recommended community tradespeople who could help. He would often share an entertaining anecdote or experience.
In years past we enjoyed his column in the local paper, especially his extensive writings in the years of low water levels. He must have spent hours researching and writing about the likely causes and potential solutions.
It is said the a person´s legacy is measured by their impact on those with whom they interact. In Dave´s case, this legacy is overwhelmingly positive and significant.
Our sincere condolences
