David was a great friend and an inspiration to me and many others for his battle against Parkinson’s! I will always remember his words of encouragement and his positive attitude.
Rest in peace my friend!!!
Dave was a great guy, he will be missed
We are all extremely saddened by Dave’s passing. Dave and I were friends from the early 60’s when he and I were roommates at Purdue. After graduation we lived and worked for many years in different parts of the country. In 2004 when my wife, Jo, and I moved to the St Louis area, Dave and I had a chance to activate our friendship activate once again.
Dave took such great pride in his wife, his daughters, their husbands and their grandchildren. He loved to tell stories of how much he enjoyed doing things with members of his family, both together and individually.
It was a privilege to have known Dave and to have him as a friend. I will always cherish the pleasant memories of a man who loved his wife and family dearly. We will all miss him.
