Not sure what to say?

Dave used to shop in my CD shop in Dallas in the 90´s. He was a good dude, had a good knowledge of all types of music. We spoke, but I never asked him any personal questions, but I knew he was obviously a musician. I finally figured it out when I saw him on MTV with Drowning Pool. I told him that I liked the single and he just gave me a mouth noise response that sounded like a muted thanks. I probably saw him one more time after that. I heard LTBHTF today and I looked him up. Totally sad. RIP.

I first met Dave when he was playing with Fugly at Boozers in Deep Elum, where I worked for 4 years. Over that time I got to get to know Dave and his former band, and the guys of Drowning Pool, who also played at the bar.

Dave always made me laugh and so that is how I would like to remember him. He was a great guy and he will truly be missed. Its always...

HE HAD SO MUCH TALENT. DAVE WILL BE MISS SO DEARLY. MY HEART GOES OUT TO HIS FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

I saw Dave/Drowing Pool for the first time in Lubbock back in October during the Music as a Weapong tour. Dave was a very powerful perfomer with such a great talent/gift as a singer/lead man. I was able and very honored to meet him. I only got to spend just enough time to get a photo taken with him and his autograph. I remember security was trying to get everyone out of the ampitheatre after the show and Dave telling them to hang on so he could meet some of his fans. He was very cool and...

He was a great man and had many talents. My heart goes out to his family, band mates, and friends (fans).

My condolences to all. He sounded like a great person to know from the interviews on the radio.

God Bless.

Thanks for the memories and the songs you sang Dave. We will all miss you dearly.

Regards to the family,
