Not sure what to say?

Raelyn and family I am so sorry for your loss. Please reach out to me. I´m your cousin and GMA was Priscilla.

Dave Keiper worked in Transient Maintenance at Dover AFB during some of his Air Force career. He was a valuable member of Swing shift during this time. He was a great mechanic and very reliable. He was engine run qualified on the C-141 and he was valuable in that qualification. Because of his diabetes, he had to be medically retired. Losing him on our shift was a big blow. I was sorry to see him go. Thank you for your service my friend and God Bless your family.

I will forever love you Brat! Love, your favorite Sister.

Dave was such a nice man, and the Go To to learn from.He will be missed.

Knock knock Who´s there Banana Banana who Knock knock Who´s there Orange Orange who And all the sudden I hear him from the other side of the isle yell " orange you glad I didn´t say Banana again"!!!! I ran over to and told him I loved him for knowing the punch line ... of course we all had a huge laugh, one of so...

Loved working with Dave at lowes and he would help with anything that was needed and miss his jokes. Peggy
