I am so sorry to read about David's passing. I remember a time when Dave and I made a quick weekend trip to Oklahoma. I think we were 16 at the time. He did all of the driving and, I might add, VERY fast. As I recall, we made the trip to visit a family that was formerly a part of his father's ministry. A strongly religious family!!! This experience left an important impression on me which was that there are many good people in this world who are willing to help or, just to stop by to say "hello!". I am certain that the tradition continued for him even in law enforcement. A PUBLIC SERVANT first and forever. Thank you Dave.
