mikewest Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Dave and his dad Gardner were super guys... Always a big smile with each greeting. Dave was true gentleman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Povertycove Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 (edited) I visited Dave last summer. He had had an awful year, with terrible health problems, the death of a child and other misfortunes. But he remained fairly optimistic, and we got to laughing. He was recovering from a stroke and was undergoing treatment for cancer, struggling for words at times, but resilient and charming. We had a good time. What a great guy.
