Dave was a great football player who could always be counted on to run the ball hard and get the yardage. He was a key player on our LCL championship team. He was a great team mate and friend who was always upbeat. I can still see he running the ball and faking the opposing defense out of their shoes as he headed to the end zone. In the number of years we underwent 2 a days in August heat you learn lot about a person's character. He was stout. He was a friend. He will be sorely missed.

Losing someone that we love never comes easy. It is truly heartbreaking. May God's promises in Isaiah 65:17 comfort and help you.
