Rest in Peace

Being a new member and participant with L.E.O.P.A. this year, I didn't know Dave very well. He certainly made an impression on me, making me feel very welcome at the events, I will miss him.

Definately the hardest Funeral/Showing I have ever gone to. I was so difficult to see all the photos of Dave boating and partying with all of us. All the time making us smile!

Larry Waddle said it correct when he said "Dave had a way of making everyone feel like his best friend". That is so true and Karen and I miss him greatly.

Godspeed and love always,

Dan and Karen Burtscher

Condolences to his family and we will miss him. RIP

Our condolences to Dave's entire family. We consider ourselves fortunate to have met. He was very well liked and will surely be missed.

Consider yourself lucky if you obtain a handful of REAL friends in a lifetime. I considered Dave as one of those friends. We boated together for 9+ yrs. & 1000's of miles all over Lake Erie and beyond and along the way we drank 1000's of beers together. He will be missed but the memories will never be forgotton.

Thanks for everything and RIP buddy.

Very, very sad.....Dave was a great guy and one of the best people to hang with.....He will be missed definatly by me and others abroad.....

Sorry to hear that, 50 is way to young!
