Dave was a daily blessing at the ADRC for his co-workers and our customers. He demonstrated a great Christian character, was a peace-maker, showed everyone what a dedicated worker looked like, and helped thousands. God blessed him with a big heart for others and he shined.

I didn't know Dave well as I just started at the ADRC and he was ending his employment there. However, I thought he was a really nice guy and was sad to hear he was gone.
