Dave and Judy were wonderful neighbors that are missed dearly. Dave would often bring us cookies and Judy made an amazing "Daisy cake' they often shared. Hi Judy! I'm so sorry to hear about Dave. We still think of you guys often here in the land of the Hurricanes.

I met Dave when he was managing Stadium Ten Pin in the early 90's. We later worked together at Metal Works until his retirement and saw him when he visited us. He was a great guy and will be missed even if he was a Packers fan. Condolences to the family.
