I was/am honored to call Dave my friend. He will be missed by all who knew him for his smiles, laughter and loyalty to his family and anyone who knew him. He always put a smile on my face, everytime I was with him. He was one of the best. Always upbeat and always there for you.
Rest in Peace my friend.
