Pat and Guy White and Tyler, My sympathy to you at this sad time. The dental office was not Dave's favorite place. But we managed a few smiles at his hygiene visits. I miss seeing you and think of you often. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Your former hygienist

Dave proved me with a wonderful memory of one of my first ham radio contacts, when I was 12 and Dave was 15. He patiently copied my imperfect morse code, and left me with a lifetime example of how a kind person should act.

I knew Dave from Ham Radio. I saw him at West Allis Amateur Radio Club Hamfests in January 2004 and 2005. I saw him at Wisconsin Association of Repeater Meetings in September 1999, September 2000, and October of 2002. I will miss him.

Thanks Dave for all the great memories. Fishing in Canada, building repeaters, building a TNC, and all the great "think tank" Saturday & Sunday morning breakfasts. May you now rest in peace...
