Cheryl, I am so sorry and surprised to hear of Dave's passing.
Unfortunately, I have lost touch with our old group. I have just moved back to Dayton because my daughter is critically ill and Jane told me about Dave. He was so much fun and the only other person that lived in Hamilton, OH besides myself that would admit it. If you do come back, please let me know of the second memorial as I would certainly br there. Shari O'[email protected]

Dave was Great. Loved working with him in KC. My prayers are with his family

Cheryl and family, Although Gary and I only had the pleasure of meeting Dave once, he made a definite impression on us as being all his obituary stated he was; a warm, loving man who loved his family, friends and life to the fullest. We are so very sorry for your loss. He will be missed. RIP Dave, you were taken much too soon...Love, Gary and Marti Peterson (friends of Ray and Mary)

I had the pleasure and honor of working for Dave at AO Smith for several years. He was a great inspiration to me and served as the best possible role model to a young man starting his career. He was always quick to take time to acknowledge the good in each person and made you feel special. My heart felt sympathy to you all during this difficult time. I will always carry Dave's memory with me as he was a most special man.

Dave was a dear man--a fun-loving, great dancer, who shared his enthusiasm for golf and stories with us all. He will be missed!

We had the pleasure of meeting Dave and his beautiful wife, Cheryl while camping with our family, Dick & Cheryl Hartman of Dayton, OH. After a weekend with the Hacker's we felt like we've known them a lifetime; we totally enjoyed his lamb chops and all the great stories and laughs that weekend.

It sure didn't take us very long to know that Dave & Cheryl were truly great people! It's not a surprise that Dave has left a wonderful legacy behind. From the stories that we've heard,...

I was truly blessed to be able to know him as my uncle. He is, and always will be, someone that I look-up to! He quite simply was a joy to be around and talk with...a caring heart, a thoughtful mind, a tremendous attitude, and rich spirit.

His passion for life, loved ones and friends was always obvious through his gracious and endearing manner. The warmth of his smile and friendship will be missed.
A golf buddy....
