Just heard about Dave's passing. We will surely miss him driving down Glenmere Homesites Road. We, including my dearly departed dad will miss one of our dearest neighbors. Fred loved visiting with him down in the "valley". Please accept our sincere condolences on his passing.

As a co-worker of Dave's, at the school, I was very sorry to hear of his passing. He was one of my favorite employees. We had many conversations about farming and saving the world! My deepest sympathy to his family, of whom he was very proud. May your many happy memories help you through this sad time.
RIP Dave - you were one of the good guys. You are now reunited with your dear Florence, whom I know you loved dearly.
