My heart is so heavy right now. First for Dave's family. He loved his family and all the great times together and for all who had the pleasure of working with him. Over the last few days, Bob has been telling me so many stories of their friendship and the crazy things they did together. They became friends around 1967 and off they went! Working and providing and of course the endless poker games. You are going to be missed by so many but the memories will go on and continue to make us smile every time we think of you or hear your name.

My heart aches... I was so fortunate to share time with this incredible man! He taught carpentry to everyone who was lucky enough to work with him just by doing. Try as you may, you couldn't keep up. His hands were huge! He wiped mud from the bottom of his boots on the door headers! Anyone who ever worked with him was better for it. Everytime I tie a hook, I have always thought of Dave. He taught me so much! I truly loved this man!! He will never be forgotten!
