To Dave's Family,
Please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss. I met Dave when he was working at Trinity and I started at Korte. As he moved to Lee, I continued to see him on a regular basis. He was really a one of a kind and will be missed by many. May you enjoy your memories of his too short life.

To Daves family;
I had the honor of working with Dave for a while at Lee Supply. For the last several years he has been one of my "go to guys" at Lee. When ever I talked to him, he always called me " sweetie". It breaks my heart that I will not hear that again in this life time, but I know I will see him again in Heaven. Until then, God Bless you Dave, I will miss you but I will see you again. You were an awsome example of patience and kindness to everyone and I will always honor you by setting you as my example.

I met Dave over 30 years ago watching the Trinity Wholesale softball team play their games. He was one of the most generous guys I had ever met and was so willing to "give". I will miss his quick smile and big laugh. God bless you Dave. You brought so much sunshine to those who met you. My condolences to your family.

Dear Cousins Willodean, Sandy, Dave, Phil, and Beverly,
It was with great surprise and sorrow that I read of Dave’s passing. It is so unfortunate that the untimely loss of a family member is something else we now share. Dave and your whole family have always been beacons of warmth and joy in your church and community. I always looked forward to seeing you at the annual Snyder family reunions and at other family gatherings as well. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you all during this time of transition.

I had the privlege of working with Dave at Lee Supply. I always had nick names for all the guys and Daves was Davey Crocket. He had the best laugh I had ever heard. It was just one of those deep belly roll laughs. One thing was for sure if you were going to be around Dave you were gonna be laughing. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time. May we always see his smile and hear his laugh when we hear his name.
Good Bless

To Dave's family -I never had the opportunity to meet Dave's wife and children,but my husband and I ran into Dave about a year ago, and we had a great talk.(We always seemed to bump into each other every few years). You could tell he was so proud of his family. You must all be very special! To Dave's mom, brother, and sister - my sincere condolences.
Dave and I shared many fun memories, and although it was many,many,years ago - you just never forget.I thank God that I was blessed to have seen him that day, to share a hug, and know that he was happy. Above all, Dave was a gentleman.

To Dave's Family;
I am very sorry to hear of your loss. I first had the pleasure of meeting Dave in 1960 when we both were in Mrs. Scoville's first grade. He sat directly in front of me and he was always very kind and intelligent. He will be greatly missed by the Class of 72.
My heart goes out to all of you.
