Jason,
Thank you for informing us. I had just spoke with Dave last Wednesday and knew it would only be a very short time. Our heartfelt condolences to Carol and the kids, which I had the pleasure of meeting recently. Our hearts also go out to Dave's extened family as well. His son is destined to take over the reigns and was quite a mature young man when they visited here a couple months ago. Dave will be sorely missed not only as a friend but as a fellow hobbiest. He was deeply involved with not only his cars, but mostly his family and business. As of late, the gifts of life were his passion especially when he fell ill and he never let things pass him by. When he purchased Annie's LS-5 recently, I asked why he was buying a car when he had sold off most of his collection. He responded that he was in fact dying but was not going to wait around for it to happen and wanted to continue to enjoy them.

If anyone finds out the details of the funeral arrangements, please post them. Annie and I will be traveling Tuesday and Wednesday and would very much like to attend if possible.

Rest in peace Dave.........
Rick and Annie
