Dave, ("Frog") was one of the first people to welcome me as a newcomer to Davis High my senior year. Funny, warm, SMART...I have many fond memories of hanging out and laughing, laughing... I feel privileged to have known Dave. My warmest condolences to his family and those in his inner circle.

I came to know the David over many years, first through the rodeo assocation working together for the betterment of the community, then when he shared my home for better than 5 years. During these times I saw David grow; I saw the real David in good times and in more difficult periods. His departure from this earth will have a profound impact for he truly was a gentle soul always seaching for his rightful place. I hope that where ever his spirit is, he has found what he is seaching for....David, friend, rest in peace.

I have many fond memories of time spent with Dave. There are times when you needed someone to talk to and he was there. He was able to make you laugh. I know I will never forget his humor... Thinking over the years we knew each other, makes me proud to have been his friend.

Dear Diane, Lori and Jill,

I was so sad to hear of the passing of Dave. He was one of my earliest friends I can remember,starting in Elementary school at Burton and all the way through High School at Davis. He was an awesome individual and being around him was always fun---we especially enjoyed going "toilet papering" on Friday nights after the games at DHS. We had a blast from the beginning---picking the lucky recipient, to the end---looking at our "masterpice" when it was all done! (And laughing all the way home for not getting caught!) I want you to know that we had many talks and he expressed how much he loved his family and how he loved being a big brother to his two sisters. I will truly miss Dave, but please know that he holds a very special place in my heart and he was a bright spot in my growing-up years.

My heartfelt thoughts and prayers are with you. Remember all the happy times!

Love,

I had the privilege of getting to know Dave in high school. Dave became my best travel, camping, waterskiing and hanging out companion. From the time we took our first trip to Hawaii together in 1988, I knew we would be friends for life. I will miss hearing his jokes, listening to him change the words to popular songs, his fun sayings and, mostly, his incredible sense of adventure. Dave came to visit me frequently when I was living in Australia. He loved being in Sydney, where, I believe, he truly found himself. Dave helped me see the world through larger eyes; he helped me learn to accept myself for who I am and he taught me invaluable lessons of tolerance. So, thank you Dave; thank you for helping me become a better person; thank you for being my friend. “Ciao babe,” for now. I will hold you in my heart forever

my condolences to friends and family who are affected by the loss of david. i knew david as he was one of my brother brads best friends in high school and beyond. i personally met him during my high school years and have periodically touched bases with him throughout the years. david always had a smile and sense of humor. i actually chatted with him about a month ago on line as, i was living in hawaii, and his charm came across the computer screen. we had i nice conversation and even remonisced a bit. i know he will be greatly missed by my brother bradley and me as well. i will pray and chant for him and the family as i am of the buddhist faith.

I have such great memories of Dave--or "Frog"--going back to high school. All I had to do was turn the corner at school or work (I worked at Harry's, right next door to Kaysville Drug) and seeing him would put a smile on my face. He had such a great, twisted sense of humor. There is a picture of us in the yearbook together that I will always cherish--it always makes me laugh and reminds me of how he could take an ordinary moment and make it funny. I've always been proud to be his friend and I will miss knowing that he's out there. Time goes by so quickly. My condolences to his family--he was a wonderful man.
