The Event
It wasn't mentioned but David was an integral part of the WSU Rowing Team in the 70's.
He was a coxswain, barking out orders to his boat of oarsmen,"Our Napoleon, a big man in a small stature". He was the coxswaine for the 1976 Novice Men's Eight who beat Yale of the little Arkansas river. What a proud day it was and how proud Dave must have been of his oarsmen.
He was good friend, always thoughtful. Hope to see you again in heaven David and we will talk about old times.

I just found out about David's funeral. I would have gone. He will be dearly missed and he was very special to Mike and I. I am sure he and Mike are enjoying telling each other stories of their rowing years at WSU in Heaven. God bless you dear family. God's peace to you all.

I had known David since I was 5 year old, even though he was small in size, he set an example for all of us live up to. David never back away from a chance to make dollar, or a friend. He was someone that you could depend on, no matter what was asked of him. The world without him, will never be what it was. David you will be missed by many, God Bless you.
