    I worked with Dave at Butterick for a few years and he was a great guy. We had many great conversations on second shift running the chart press as his helper. The last time we spoke he was heading out to a yard sale which I know he loved to do. My condolences go out to his family and he will be missed. Regards, Shawn Pendergrast.

    I worked with Dave for many years on advertising for his business, and always enjoyed seeing him. He also installed a water treatment system for our family. He will be missed in the community. My sympathy to his family! Sincerely, Stephanie Krug
