Going to miss Dave. While working together we had a lot of laughs. Dave was a great friend to have, always took the time to talk. He loved his Dacshund, I always had one myself so that conversation was never ending. After Dave retired I would look for him at the downtown events to talk. Special prayers go out to the family.
Brenda, you and you’re family are in my thoughts and prayers. May God bless Dave and keep all of you in his loving hands.
On behalf of myself and the many students at The College of Wooster who got to know Tony, Skylar, and Dave through the bowling program, and more recently the game nights on campus, we offer our sincere condolences for your loss.
