He was a very proud father and grandfather cherishing time with family and friends. An avid sports fan he loved his Ravens & Orioles and Mountaineer football and basketball. Yes, he did bleed blue & gold, always to be found tailgating beneath the BU flag in the blue lot. Dave treasured his summer vacations to Nags Head, NC and visits to Grey Rocks. He spent his free time working in his gardens, reading suspense novels and watching various sports. He was especially proud of his home and enjoyed relaxing on his back porch with his pets reading the newspaper. He truly loved life in Buckhannon.
