Hate to see you gone, bubba. Always enjoyed runnin into you at the carwash. Always a how have you been between us for a minute. I’m sure you’ll be missed by all. Peace to your soul and the hearts of all of your bunch. Ken Kelley
Everyone loves and misses you so much dad❤️
This guy always had a smile or laugh going on anytime that I rolled through the carwash. He, in turn, would always put a smile on my face. He sure loved his grandkids and bragged on them quite a bit. My heart goes out to Dave’s family and friends. I was very saddened to hear this news. Rest in Heaven with peace and good health Dave, you will be missed by many…
Sherry and family,we are sending our love and prayers for comfort and peace. Remember so many of the good things you were able to share with David and let those thoughts be in your heart everyday. Uncle Jimmy and Linda
Our deepest sympathies.
David loved Sherry, Chris and Kristen and his grandkids more than anything! Nothing could make him happier than spending time with all of them and they loved him in return. He even learned to video chat with Ethan just to see his face when they didn’t see each other in person! He has left them too soon! We never know how much time we have or when we will be saying our last goodbye. That is all up to God and in his timing. Make sure you appreciate the time you do have. Our kids knew how much he loved them! Rest in peace now David. Go and take care of those big yards in heaven and fish all you want until it is our time to join you! Kim (Duke) Lewis
I was friends with David as a kid. We road dirt bikes together in Brazil, IN when he came to visit my neighbor/his grandma Violet. I havent seen him in probably 36 years and always wondered what happened to him. Sounds like he had a great family. Sad to hear the news.
