I worked with Dave at NSC and we became good friends. He was the type of person who could walk into seemingly anywhere and know someone and get a warm welcome. He always seemed to find the positive side or humor in any situation. I remember getting soaked at Summerfest one time and he just said it was a chance for us to expand our clothing inventory. I'm so glad that I knew him and will miss him greatly.
