Judith and Family and Alice. I was a friend from back in the late 50's when I helped Dave and his family work on the # 5 Marions Auto Parts race car. I was welcomed in to the family group and for over 3 years learned a lot about mechanics and what good people could be like.
I am so sorry to hear of Davids passing and wish I had been able to be more in contact over the years.

Judith & Family,

My sincere sympathy to all of you. Dave was more than just a mechanic working on Worthington's fire trucks, he was a wizard. Great memories of lunches at Nancy's while waiting for a repair. Both you and Dave were more than vendors. You were family.

Judith so sorry to here of your lose of Dave, my condolences and prayers go out to you and your family.
Dave was one of the first persons I met outside the Worthington F.D. family when I first became a Fire Fighter. He was so knowledgeable about fire service vehicles and was always willing to pass that knowledge on. He was truly missed when he retired but even more in his passing. RIH Dave well deserved!

Judith so sorry to here about Dave. We had hoped to see you both in October when we come to Florida. He will certainly be missed. I always joyed the annual pump test he did for departments I was associated with, and recently on a couple jobs we did together. I and my wife especially enjoyed our visit at your home in Worthington. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
