"Dave was a great guy.It was always fun to go shooting with him because he would always have something different with him to shoot. Dave will be missed by me exspecialy when I have a wiring question. I should maybe not wire anymore in fear of burning my house down. He would always get a kick out of it when he sparked the wires together and I would jump or just run away from him. "It won't hurt you " he'd say with a big smile "it's only 110". I never believed him."
"I will cherish the goofy times with Dave and the way he treated me and everyone he met with respect. I am keeping your family in my prayers."
