Dave was a customer at the record store I worked at. It was always a fun time when he and Acme would come in to shop. Dave was a great guy and will be missed.

I am very sorry for your loss. I worked with Dave on several occasions during my time at DHS/DORS and remember him as a strong advocate for individuals who are visually impaired.
