So sorry for your loss. Dave will be greatly missed by all. It seems almost impossible that he was here visiting Bill not too long ago. Bill always enjoyed the time spent with Dave. Prayers to Bev and the family.

I'm so sorry to hear this, Dave was a great guy. We had many fun times during our employment at the PRCA. He always liked to remind me of the time I brought my car into his Meineke thinking something was wrong with it, and it was just a tumbleweed caught in the wheel well! My thoughts are with his family and friends during this difficult time.
