Sandy, I was so sorry to hear about your husband's passing. He was a good man, and never had anything bad to say about anyone. He always complimented me on the work I did in the few shows I did at LC, whether I deserved it or not. My heart goes out to you in your time of loss.

To Sandra and the kids, my Heart goes out to all of you in this time of great sorrow and grief. Dave was a Man with a great heart who touched the lives of many many people and if he came into someone's life they had to love the man as I loved him. Dave had a "Quiet Kindness" about him that is hard to find in others...just simply a Great Guy whom I am proud to have known. He will be sadly missed by many.
