David was a very interesting and funny person with a dry sense of humor and always had an answer for everything.
I’ve really enjoyed David’s company and wish
I could have spent more time with him.
The geographic location between California and Washington sometimes made it difficult for us to connect.
Life sometimes gets in the way of things……….
But, could David ever play a game of golf. It was a pleasure to play a round of golf with him and a pleasure to watch him play. When I would have a bad game he had the most calming affect “telling me Larry just swing down on the ball”. Last Friday afternoon while finishing up on my home course on the 18th hole I thought about David and how much I would miss him on this earth.

I told my group of guys that I was going to drive 2 balls. One for me, and the other for David. As I hit the second ball, I swung down on it, and to my surprise, it went farther than my regular drive .

Rest In Peace …….

David was a good person who will be missed by many. David was always friendly and welcoming – to know him was to like him. He was successful in business, on a golf course and when using a fly rod to catch and release sport fish.

Memories of David are many….

Les fondly remembers house hunting with David in 1987, boating on Lake Washington with a group of friends and singing to our favorite tunes, golf games together, playing as partners in the FGC member guest tournament, lunch at Katy Downs (because they had a smoking area when others did not) where topics of discussion were varied and always interesting.

I liked to tell David that 3rd times a charm – that’s when he finally convinced me to work for him. I questioned my decision at the time to work with my favorite brother-in-law but finally agreed and now 25 years later…. he will be missed.

Life was good for David and we know that he is comfortable in the afterlife that he designed for himself, which we are sure includes a golf course, fly fishing spot abundant with trout, a place to keep current on his WSU Cougars and a spot to entertain family and friends who have gone before him.

Rest in Peace David

David was first and foremost a gentleman, generous, gracious and kind.

Like everyone else, I have known Dave for many years as he was my favorite brother-in-law and married to my sister Christine.
Each of us knows David in various ways. Through his siblings, children, family, friends, work, and club he has numerous friends and family members and thus many memories with each one of us.

Of all the times I have spent with David it was two years ago when he took me aside and gave me a long lasting hug, a few tears and a few private words we both exchanged to one another. Thank you David, for being wise and thoughtful enough to take this time to share this moment and words with me. Little did we know it would have to last us a life time. This is a time I will never forget.

David, Rest in Peace. May our heavenly father and his grace be with you in this your last and final journey on your last and final 18!

In His Name
