I´ll always remember how kind and patient Dave was. He was a great coach. Had lotta good times back in the old Kingsgate Knight´s days!!
He´ll always be remembered as coach Pruitt! I think of him often. I´ve never heard one bad thing ever said about that man. He was one of a kind!!! He is missed!

In all the years we worked together I wondered what the secret was to having a marriage like yours. Every time you talked about Dave the love and respect was obvious. It saddens me to think you've gone all this time without Dave but then I remember your son's.. such an incredible family... Love and family... They never end.

This candle is for you. We so graciously honor you.
Yesterday was your birthday and oh how I wish I was running around with my head chopped off like a chicken trying to find you the perfect yet funny birthday card along with silly hats for all of us to wear and singing you Happy Birthday surrounded by one another....
And how I wish we gathered for Thanksgiving and ate til we couldn't stand it along with our "fancy" butter and had just enough room for each piece of dessert....
You are missed everyday. We love you so much.
Keep smiling down on us....we celebrate your wonderful life and spirit. Happy Birthday in Heaven...and save us a slice of cake because we know we will see you again and oh what a glorious day that will be!
PS....your grandson will be born soon! And we'll take a picture of you to the hospital so he can see you....
We love you...

Hi Dad, it always helps to visit this site and see your face smiling back at us. We miss you everyday. This world feels a little empty. I know your watching over us, just wish we could have one more talk or laugh again. Addison kisses your picture goodnight, we have it by her bed so she can see you everyday. She really loves her Grandma. She calls her MawMaw too. I pray for all of us and I just wish for peace and comfort, especially for Mom. Well Dad we know you already know since you're in Heaven watching us, but we are having another baby. It's a boy too! We know you are proud, we promise to keep your memory alive Dad....you are missed deeply.

Ruthray, Justin and Jeremy,
I am so sorry for your loss. Even though we didn't see each other often, I cherished to times we did. My memories of Uncle Dave will always bring a smile to my face. His funny stories and infectious laugh will be what remember most about him. I wish I could be there for you but please know that you are in my thought and prayers.
Love Terry and Sherry

My deepest condolences to your family. Because of Scoutmaster David Pruitt's kindness and daily investment of people our Nation stays strong and protected. Not a day goes by in my Navy career that I don't use skills taught from him and Troop-20's leadership. I will miss Dave Pruitt dearly, but will never forget him and continue to follow his excellent example.

Ruthray, Jeremy, and Justin - We were saddened by the news of the sudden loss of your beloved husband and father. You are in our thoughts and prayers. We have many good memories of Dave. He always put a smile on our faces. Most recently we got to see him at the funeral of our father, Joe Mauldin. We really appreciate your both being there. May God bless you and give you strength in the days ahead. Love, Mike and Marsha Mauldin

I was one of the scouts in Troop 20. I joined a couple of years before he ended his tenure as Scoutmaster of our large troop. (I'm almost 34 now.) We had a blast, he was a strong leader, good guide, and had a likeable/kind dimension about him. We respected him, but we'll remember our scouting memories. To this day, I still remember his winning chili and the chili cook-offs. Good times!!
