I remember Dave when I went to church all of the time at Grace. He was a really good man. Couldnt ask for a more friendlier face at church. I recall him teaching me what way to light the candles as an acolyte at church.

I met Dave almost 40 years ago when I joined Grace Lutheran Church. He always made me feel so welcome and was so friendly. He did so many kind and wonderful things for his church family. He took care of the building and grounds and much more and would do anything for anyone. We will miss him terribly. Much sympathy to his friends and family.
