Legendary radio host and DJ David Michael Hagedorn aka/Dave Michaels & Bobby Moore of Palm Beach Gardens, Florida passed away unexpectedly Friday, March 10, 2023. He was born in Cape Girardeau, Missouri on April 6, 1953. Dave had a long and exciting career in radio, and as a DJ for KGMO, WPOM, WIRK and most current Uncle Mick's in Jupiter. He DJ'd many weddings and parties over the years. He enjoyed his career in radio and was voted Best Country DJ in South Florida and Nighttime Show (The All Request Show) with WIRK. Dave was very loving, caring, compassionate, and a very devout Christian, and if you needed support Dave was there for you. When he wasn't watching sports you might find him watching Gunsmoke. Dave was very artistic, and on birthdays or holidays family would look forward to receiving one of Dave's very funny and creative hand drawn envelope to go along with his card, a masterpiece that none of us could ever throw away. Dave had that Midwestern charm and personality and was loved by so many. He was quite the prankster always playing jokes on everyone. Dave attended St. Mary's Grade School, Notre Dame High School and Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau, MO. He was totally devoted to his family and will truly be missed. Dave is survived by his daughter Jennifer Hagedorn, loving sister's Carol O'Hayon of Palm Beach Gardens, FL, Diane Johnston (Steve) of Cape Girardeau, MO, nieces Polly Agee (Bill), Kristyn Taylor (Ryan), Leah Apyan (Paul), nephew's Rick Hagedorn (Kim), Ryan Hagedorn (Amy), Andrew Johnston (Kristy), great niece's Ashley Taylor, Bailie, Breanna, Makenzie Johnston, Megan Fisher, Lauren Hagedorn and great nephews Mark & Blake Hagedorn, Jacob & Luke Hagedorn, Cameron & Wade Apyan. Dave was predeceased by his loving parents Elmer and Teresa Hagedorn, brother's and their spouse's Richard and Doris Hagedorn, Robert and Susan Hagedorn. There will be a Celebration of Life and Memorial Farewell at Uncle Mick's in Jupiter on April 8, 2023 from 4:00 � 8:00 PM with a toast in Dave's honor at 6:00 PM. Dave will return to his "favorite place" to rest in peace, his hometown of Cape Girardeau, Missouri. If you have any funny stories or pictures that you'd like to share please bring them with you to Uncle MIck's on April 8th. Dave would always end his show with "Dave's Not Here Man"�The Fun Has Just Begun, "Yes It Has, Yes It Has".

Dave was the DJ at our wedding in 1994. Besides being a true professional in his chosen field, he displayed his warm heart and patience at our celebration. I worked with Kathy at Publix in Palm Beach Garden. My daughter is getting married so i looked up his name. When my wife and I traveled through Palm Beach area, we always searched the dial for his voice. Our heartfelt prayers to His family. Love, Michael Petrin
