Dave, I'll miss You so very much,your smile, kindness,believing me when I said I saw a cat print,on the river bottom, You explained to me just how it was a big cat and how it didn;t want to walk through the water and jumped,You believed me and took the time to explain it. Then when I realize You looked like Bruce Willis, we laughed out loud but I wasn't the first person that told you that, Dave,you always gave me the best hugs ,a truly special friend,brother, father ,son and grandson, there will never be anyone like you,I'm so grateful to have had the honor to call You my friend, Love Sam
