I have so many fond memories of our families spending holidays together! Dave always had a smile that lit up the room. He and my brother Tim were the same age and were so close as cousins. Our families supported each other through some hard times and enjoyed each other when we all spent time together. I will miss Dave and hope all of his family know how special he was and his life will live on in our memories!
All my love to Daves family!

Vicki and family - I am so sorry for your loss. I was so saddened by the news of Dave's passing. My deepest sympathy to you and your family. I don't even know what to say. Some of the very best memories I have were times with Dave. He could always make me laugh. Fishing trips, hunting trips, going to concerts. He made every event more enjoyable. He was always willing to help me professionally and personally. Truly a wonderful man who enriched my life. He will be greatly missed.
