"Because each of us is different, we experience grief in different ways. There is no right or wrong way to grieve, only your own way.
You may experience a range of feelings. You may feel numb, confused, lost, depressed, lonely, guilt, or even anger. It is possible to experience the feeling of being on a roller coaster because of the ups and downs of emotions. It is all normal and ok.
There is no time limit to grieving. The only thing you can do is to go on the best way you can.
Hopefully you will not hold things in because it may help to share your memories of Dave. Believe he will always be a part of you because of the memories you have of him. Remember you were blessed to have been a part of his life rather than not at all.
What a great guy and friend! One of the memories I have of Dave is of him helping me get my racecar from my ex-husband because it was my racecar but my ex-husband wouldn't let me use his car trailer so Dave helped me go get it with his trailer."
"Our thoughts and prayers are with you and we are so sorry for your loss. Your neighbors are here to help you with whatever you need.
Mike, Mary, Tom, and Hannah Schneekloth"
"I graduated with Dave and enjoyed all the fun things he would post on Facebook. Our loss is definitely heaven's gain. I'm sure he will keep everyone up there entertained."
"To the family: Even though I dont race Webster City much anymore, I still would enjoy his posts, alway funny. He was alway so nice to talk to and work with. The entire race community lost a great ambassador of the sport, godspeed #5.............. Pat Graham"
"To Dave's family: As a neighbor, I watched Dave grow from a delightful little boy to a delightful man. He was such a positive role model...always polite, always content and happy, and never seemed uncomfortable talking to an "older woman". My heart aches for your loss. May happy memories bring you peace. Mary Shultz (Portland Oregon)"
"Hundreds of great memories, fun times, and crazy antics will, in due time, overpower this tragic loss. The memories of cutting roofs off cars with the blade of a circular saw turned backwards, trying to go to Algona in "Whitey", the storm on the way home from Cresco, and winning the lottery with a claim motor from Boone will live on forever. Sometimes friends lose touch over the years, such is life, but they always keep the memories."
"My deepest sympathy to the Hubbard Family. I feel so blessed to have met Dave who had a heart of a gold, a wonderful soul, and an amazing sense of humor. Some of my best memories are with Dave and he will be missed more than words can ever say.
