He also helped build the Mary and Joseph Houses, and participated in multiple mission trips to Beattyville, Kentucky. He was a member of the Lions Club and Toastmasters International, and in his spare time he enjoyed fishing and had an appreciation for old cars.

Deb & Mark, I did not know your Dad but seems to be a true servant of God. To loose a parent makes a big hole in your heart but to know someday you'll be together again helps. Until that day.....keep looking up. You know he's watching you and smiling.....saying....thats my kids.

I can still hear Dave´s wonderful laugh. He had so many good stories to tell and always seemed to be upbeat. I admired him so much for taking special care of Lois every day. He was such an inspiration as a devoted family man. I will miss chatting with him. May our Lord give you comfort that Dave is with his Savior and loved ones.

We are so sorry for your loss, I will always remember seeing him riding his bike. In the later years, as I visited my Mom at SKLD I would see him as he visited his wife. His smile was contagious! Thinking of you all.
