Dave and I have been neighbors for fifty years , first on McCreary Ridge and then on Rt. 88. We have always enjoyed horses together. We always watched his pony pulls and then he went to horses . We used to all go on trail rides together and had so much fun. Dave will be missed by all who knew him .
Dave and Marilyn were like grandparents to me. He was such a kindhearted and giving man. He always was there to lend a helping hand, and I will forever remember his laugh. Heaven is sweeter today. I hope he is porch sitting, watching his horses, and sipping on his wine.
Our wonderful neighbor, he always helped me with our horses and offered great advice. Loved seeing him work with his teams. Sincere condolences to all of the family.
