To Shellie and the Glover family:

It is with great shock and sadness that I learned of Dave's death. Although my dealings with Dave were mostly on a business level, he always took the time to inquire of mine and my family's well being, and was always genuinely concerned. He always spoke highly and lovingly of Shellie and his girls, and I know that he cared deeply about all of you.

My heartfelt condolences to all of you at this difficult time.

Sincerly,

I am devastated, shocked and saddened with the tragic news of Dave’s untimely death. Dave was a dear friend. He was full of life. He brought people together and he made people laugh. When we were young, his cars, the road trips, the family home basement and pool brought us together. More recently, he shared his talent and love of music. It’s really tough to swallow and very sad to know that has been taken away from us all. I will miss him and never forget him. Shellie, Stephanie, Taylor, Jim, Sherry, Steve, Jeannie, Bernie, Lorraine and family, I offer my deepest sympathy for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. RIP Dave "Big Daddy G" Glover.
