Dave was a counselor when I was at NM, but I really got to know him my first year of teaching at Hawkins Middle School. He was a wonderful mentor and support.

What a proud grandpa Dave was. When his grandson was around, Dave was all smiles. The love for his family was shown like a beacon. He was a true friend and is missed by so many of us. We look forward to seeing you again, Dave.
