Dave and I met during the 2001 hockey season at Washington and Jefferson College. He was an established star and I was a tryout, and yet he embraced me and made me a part of that team. I''ll never forget that.
We didn''t stay close following that year, running into each other up til graduation, and then life took us apart.
I next saw Dave at Blockbuster Video in Washington, Pa putting himself through grad school. He was having a hard time, but that smile of his as he saw me walk through that door...I''ll never forget that smile.
I haven''t seen Dave since...I'll see him again though...but how happy I was to hear of his life and to have those memories rekindled. May the Lord wrap each of you, his family, tightly in His arms and may His abundant peace and comfort rain upon you. I''ll miss you Dave...until then.
