Dave was one of my instructors at Butler University. He he was one of the kindest, warmest people to grace Jordan Hall and the old WTBU building on Illinois. So many memories in the old WTBU truck parked at Hinkle with Dave. Thanks for being a positive influence in my college days. Prayers to his family.
