Dave was one of many of mom and dad's "kids". I remember him coming to the house with my brothers. He was always a part of the family. When our dad passed away 2015 Dave came to the respect calls and when mom saw him her face just lit up. I will always remember Dave very fondly as one of my older brothers.
