Your candle was extinguished way too soon. We've lost a great colleague and friend. Always enthusiastic with a most infectious laugh and sense of humor, no matter the circumstances. I've logged a lot of miles travelling with you over the years and totally enjoyed the time and conversation together. I'll cherish the memories, the laughter, the stories. Rest in peace my friend.

We were friends for 35 years and I wanted 35 more. I am going to miss you! Just like everyone else I have more memories than I have time. You had the unique ability to make everyone feel like they were your best friend. I had two best men in my wedding 22 years ago...my dad and Dave Schworm and I lost them both in the same year. I know that we will see each other again ...that's the promise that we have. I love you Dave!

When I look back of all the people who have come in and out of my life, Dave Schworm was on top of the list. I can't remember a time when I didn't laugh when I was around him. To say you will be missed will be an understatement. We all became better by knowing him. May God be with you my brother.

Dave, Your dedication at work and accountability was a great example for all. We accomplished some great things in returning Santoprene to profitability and growing Vistalon and had a lot of fun together at work, with customers and on the golf course. You always maintained your cool and had a positive outlook which helped our team a great deal. You were a good friend and I will miss you greatly. Thinking of your family in this difficult and sad time.

In loving memory of a wonderful friend whom I will miss for eternity. It is rare to find such a person as Dave, I am lucky to have shared a wide variety of experiences and emotions with him over the years. It is those memories that will keep his spirit alive in my mind and heart. Rest in peace my friend.

Dave, your passion and dedication to the business was only overshadowed by your honesty and friendship that so many of us experienced. Your time was short but your impact was large - I will miss you my friend. This year's Vistamaxx plan is dedicated to you!
