    Vicki, I am so saddened to hear this happened to Dave. I am sure that God has taken him home to be pain free in His Kingdom. You have many friends, and a family who will care for you, Vicki. You are not alone. I pray that God comforts you and gives you peace.

    I met Dave through pickleball and loved his quiet humor, advice if asked for it, and his total respect for other players. As I came to know Dave, perhaps the thing I most respected about him was the many ways he respected and loved Vicki and his family. He met death with grace, dignity, and a well fulfilled life. May he enjoy playing Heaven’s back nine.
