You were always a grumpy old man who liked keeping to himself but you were still a great friend to those you let in. I am happy to have known you as my friend and you will be missed. Until we meet again…. Matt
Dave, I thought of you today when I saw a man who looked a lot like you. I looked you up and am so sad to hear of your passing. I hope you’re on endless camping and photography excursions. I imagine you still only wear clothes that were free from ULine and I respect that. You were cranky as hell but damn were you loved.
