Dave and I went to school from 1st grade to graduating from high school. At J.D. Colt elementary school we played on the same softball team for three years. Dave played 3rd base, Al Hand played 1st, Charlie Tabaka pitched and I was the catcher just to name a few of players.Dave and I always traded baseball cards…he was a tough negotiator…today I still don't know what happened to my baseball card collection.The Dave I knew was very smart and had a gentle soul. I will always have memories of the good times we had at Colt school.John Pass Litchfield, IL

I work out at Evergreen where he lived and he was a very talented and smart man. He always called me jennio-turkey. I will never look at a turkey the same…will always think of him. RIP David..
