I've not seen Dave in many years but I was sad to hear of his passing. we had lots of great times playing guitar, listening to heavy doses of AC/DC and other metal, him shooting me with a BB gun through his downstairs closet door. though we haven't seen each other in a long time, I feel like the world is worse now without Dave.

I will always remember his kindness, huge heart, making sure everyone was having a good time and always laughing. Dave and I worked together and also went to concerts or other events. I always had a great time when being with him. He will be dearly missed missed
