Dave was an enthusiastic tour bus driver for Butler Motor Transit for 30 plus years and ended his driving career with Campbell Bus Lines. He had many yearly trips that he was requested for due to his rapport with the people involved. Dave looked forward to these trips and seeing the people each year, especially the Grove City College Touring Choir. He was always a smiling face to see and cared deeply for his friends and family, especially his grandchildren. Dave was also an extremely loving fur dad to several dogs over the years.

He is survived by his loving wife of 21 years, Christine Eva Anderson Dudash; a daughter Jennifer Dudash of Slippery Rock; a grandson Jenson Dudash; a brother Thomas Dudash of Harlansburg; step children, Joseph Falkosky (Nancy), of Jeannette, and Jill Falkosky of Greensburg; and step grandchildren, Jacob and Adam Penley.

My deepest condolences to the Dudash family! Dave was one of the few people who excepted me as a friend when I came to Pennsylvania. His knowledge of transportation made him the complete operator. Never a bitter word to his riders or his fellow workers. You will be missed but, we will meet again .

David was a close family friend and a wonderful man to many. My finest memories were the trips to Oak Island for family vacations and the many compliments he would give me while getting my dresses fitted from Crissy. May he Rest In Peace.
