I knew Dave from playing against him in high school sports, and you could tell that he was something special...the way he carried himself, his demeanor. A few years later, I became close friends with him as he became our Pastor at Fish Lake Bible at a very young age. We had a lot in common as we both loved sports and our kids were close in age with theirs. It was very easy for me to connect with him. Tina and I got involved with him and Cheri, and Simon and Linda Kemp as Word of Life leaders in Dave's youth ministry at our church. Dave had a special impact in my christian life. He always encouraged you, and always tried to find the positive in something. I'll never forget all the basketball and softball games we played together in our church league. He was such a competitor but always a positive influence to everyone. Years later, as he was a Pastor at another church and later with Word of Life, he continued to stay in touch even though he was many miles away and always on the go. His memories and the time he gave me will always be special to me. While watching Chip, Chad, Catherine, Candice and Christin up on stage talking about how much their Father meant to them, the example he was and them all singing, brought tears to my eyes knowing how proud both Dave and Cheri would be.
