Dave, as many of his friends and family knew him, had been a local, small business owner for many years, until he retired. He liked watching football, especially high school and college. He enjoyed taking cruises with his family and friends. In the last several years, he really had fun doing wood working. Everything from making tables for his grandchildren to custom pens. He spent time with his friends, many of whom are from his childhood, by going to weekly breakfast with "the guys".
He will missed by everyone who knew him. Respecting David's wishes there will be no calling hours or service.
