He was happy to be enjoying the outdoors, camping and fishing. Dave liked to tinker just like his Dad. He had a loving nature, was thoughtful, kind and a loyal friend. His nieces and nephews enjoyed his teasing and time spent with him. We will remember the best of you “Davey Crocketâ€, thanks for making the world a little better of a place.

A limb has fallen from the family tree. I keep hearing a voice that says, “Grieve not for me. Remember the best times, the laughter, the song. The good life I lived while I was strong.â€
