Not sure what to say?

Dave-You are very much remembered as a good customer and friend for us at R.A.M. Automotive. Gonna miss seeing you!

Thoughts and prayers for the Eldridge Family.

Ellen, So sorry to hear of the passing of David. You are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

My heartfelt condolences go out to my friends Kathy & Barb, to the rest of your robust family, your Dad's friends, and the countless others whose lives were enriched through their association with him. He was a well-loved and respected cornerstone member of our community, keeper of Augusta's rich history, and he will be greatly missed. He lived an incredibly full and long life. Even knowing this, one is never really prepared to lose their loved one from their earthly life. I'm holding you...

I will always remember hid love and kindness to my husband and myself. He he held a very special place in our lives and hearts. We were honored to be adopted by the entire family. I will forever remember him. Rest in peace my dear friend and say hello to Marc.

What a wonderful man! I met David through our love of weather. We talked of past tornadoes/weather events in our area. David kept track of them all, assembled a wonderful scrap book of photos and newspaper articles. I was honored that he let me borrow it so the National Weather Service in Grand Rapids could scan the pages for their archives. I am proud to have known him and I send my deepest sympathy to David´s family and friends. He will be missed by many. With love, Kim Delfsma
