Dave was my friend. I will miss him and the light he brought in any room he was in.
We had a lot fun, some serious talks and always a laugh. Many afternoons we would head up to the hills to gamble and he always won. Dave was a winner in life too.
I will miss him and his presence but He will always have a place in my heart.

I remember being introduced to Dave by my Dad. I knew he would be a good man that could be trusted. Over the years, sitting next to him in meetings, talking with him before or after meetings and at so many events, he shared his wisdom and perspective with me and others. Dave loved his family and shared how grateful and proud he was of his children and grandchildren over the years. Dave was open and honest. I miss seeing his face, but I still feel his presence in the rooms. God rest his soul.

For me, Dave was a great man. when I saw him my spirit lifted. I always wanted to shake his hand, say hello and see how he was doing. He would share with me his very simple, humble experience and strength and hope! love that guy.

Dave was a true friend of mine and many others for well over 38 years. He helped so many with his experience and willingness to help others. He taught me about what it takes to be a mentor. I, like many, cherish our experiences together and will carry his memory until we meet again someday. Love you Dave
