You can do that by either using the envelopes at the funeral home or sending checks to RACK at 3240 Redmond Rd. Russia, OH 45363.

Dave "Chill" always reminded me of his Dad - Ed with that warm smile, humble demeanor and spiritual aura that just oozes goodness and class. I remember "Chill" as a talented athlete who loved to compete on the court and ball field. Just a man of respect in every facet of his life.
We will always keep Dave, Nicki and their beautiful children in our prayers.

My wife and I were on the scene only a minute after it happen. While my wife was calling 911 I crawled in and tried to help the man I now know as (Dave Borchers). Although I couldn't get him out I want you to know he was not alone in this moment of despair. Although he was unconscious I talked to him until the paramedic arrived. I tried to give him as much comfort as possible ensuring him help was on the way and everything would be done to get him out. I am very sorry I couldn't have done more.

Although we have never met Dave, we did see him coaching at Russia and Ft. Loramie basketball games, we have been missing out. He sounds like a wonderful person. We are very sad for your loss and will be keeping all of you in our prayers.
