Dave was my friend. He had a passion for the outdoors and enjoyed hunting, guns, and reloading. These last two years, Dave and I spoke almost daily. We enjoyed discussing his spotting sessions and hunting adventures along with auctions. Dave loved talking and visiting with friends. He also recognized good homemade food and spoke to the skill his late Mother possessed in the kitchen. Last summer we purchased peaches and they were fantastic. We had plans to order again this year? If I resign to getting peaches this year, I will definitely enjoy them while honoring all the good times, conversations, and friendship I shared with Dave. I will miss my friend! RIP Dave
