So sorry to hear of Dave´s passing. He was a wonderful veteran advocate and even a greater person. I have many memories of our time in the American Legion when we worked together to assist fellow veterans in Michigan.
My thoughts and prayers are with Dave´s family at this most difficult time. Safe travels my friend.
