I know it sounds selfish but Dave will be missed by so many. He had a quiet sense of humour and a strong sense of family. We could share so many memories, opening your home to annual Optimist picnics, working at car shows, bike rodeos, Optifests. Dave was a man you could always count on. His love of cards (he taught me so much about Texas hold ‘em). May your happy memories soon heal your hurt hearts. Special thoughts to the his grandsons he was loved wholeheartedly and was so proud of.
