“David will certainly not be forgotten. He was one of the most interesting and personable people I have known. We made summer trips to West Point where he found his wonderful wife and where we did a little dancing. In recent years, he invited us ring side to a great Kenny Roger concert in DSM. As a kid I started on a small farm behind teams of horses so I especially enjoyed riding with Dave on his self-propelled equipment several times. He was witty and charming to the end.”
