My sympathy to Keith, Susan and family in the passing of Dave. He was a year ahead of me in school but was always friendly when he'd see you. Years later we ran into each other at the grocery store (Nells/Weis) and he was still just as friendly. Once he helped me load some mulch bags in my van when he saw I needed help. That was Dave! Friendly and helpful!! RIP

Prayers going out to the Baker family. I remember Dave being close to my family ever since I was a young child. I had the privilege of getting to know him as I grew older and he was one of the most intelligent men I have ever known. He was incredibly knowledgeable in many things, including how to survive off the land, homesteading and planting... what a great guy who had a very kind and giving spirit.
God Bless you, Dave!
