David was always fun to work with on any project. He was great with horses. I miss his humor and his comments about my old trucks.......

My condolences to the Davies family! I was proud to be his banker when he opened for business back in the 70’s! He told me he was ready to use his skills to make a successful machine shop business. Started it out of his home!!

Sorry for your loss Pearl. Dave was a mentor and friend who I was proud to have worked with at P. J. Valves. He always showed a smile and was an inspiration to all us younger guys at work? I loved his devotion to betting on his favorite “Ponies” at the races! He shield will be missed!

Dave was a gentleman and an awesome person to do business with. I've had the pleasure of visiting his shop and seeing the joy he took in producing quality parts. Our company has been using Davies Precision for probably 40 years and we will all miss Dave's upbeat spirit and can-do attitude. I'm sure that he has put a team in place that will continue his legacy as an ethical supplier of quality, affordable, precision machining and parts. My sincerest condolences to the family and co-workers. We all lost a good one in Dave!

I had the pleasure of Dave's presence a few times in my life and let me tell you....he was an honest, warm soul! He sat down with you to talk about whatever, whether it be about the weather, kids or what he wanted to get done that weekend. He always had the nicest smile! He made me feel welcome everytime I was at his BEAUTIFUL home! May his compassion and hard work on this earth never be forgotten but a great example for us all!
