I´m sure Dave´s loved ones miss him no less, now it´s been even longer since you´ve been with him. My husband died when he was 50, 21 years ago and I miss him no less.
I remember Dave practicing pole vaulting outside the high school. It was inspiring and an event to behold. And he got his picture in the paper spear fishing. So sad life has to end. Thinking of his family and sending hugs to you.

To Glenna and family,
So sorry to hear of Dave's passing.
Dave was a great guy and enjoyed the outdoors so much. I've been living in Alaska for the past 32 years and have lost touch with so many high school friends but I still remember most everyone. I would have been at the service if I could have been. I know the sorrow this brings to you and my heart breaks for your loss.

To Glenna and family.. my condolences to all of you. I will always remember Dave fondly from our days at THS! Bill Knopp
