Hello, Linda,

Fern called to tell Sharon and me the news of Dave's passing. We have many, many pleasant memories of time spent with you and Dave at the IBEE gatherings. I remember best just sitting around, shooting the bull, and downing a beer or two. We will all miss Dave--a lot.

Linda and family,
I am so sorry to read this about Dave. wow, you blew me away. Just this last winter I have been going thru old pics. I found a lot of you and Dave at the Cavern and your wedding. I had them already to bring home (I live in Texas) and got called home for an emergency and forgot to bring them. I was going to try to find you two and look at these funny pics with you. I am so sorry to come home to this. You two have always had a special place in my heart and my memories. I hope you and your family will be blessed with strength to move forward and keep memories close in your heart. love and hugs coming your way....

Hi Linda and family,
I am sorry to hear about Dave's death.
I doubt you remember me, but I remember working with Dave and you and a bunch of other good people at Hot Lines crisis referral run through the Cavern. I wish I had kept in touch better with you and others. You both showed me a lot about how to be a caring and responsible human being.

Dave Voster was famous in Appleton, when he took charge of the Cavern Coffee House on St Joe's property.

I had lost track of him until his death notice.

The Cavern Coffee house he ran, brought a new demention to the youth interests in Appleton (WI)
I considered him a true friend. It nice to know that he died in peace, like he always lived.

Dave,
You will be missed by your family and friends so much!
You were a great man, always caring about everyone and always with the laughter and sarcasm that we all came to expect from you.
I know how hard it is going to be for us all to say goodbye to you, but its only because you were someone worth loving as a friend!
Thanks for being a great one to the ones who mean the most to me!
