When I saw her post today, I had to read it a couple of times before it sank in. I donno why, but it just shocked me. Dave was a genuinely cool guy, and was always very decent to me, and was hella smart. Those that saw his restored Suzuki knew he was talented too.
It was in a PM conversation about that bike when he told me about his problems with diabetes. I was hoping he had been able to get a better grasp on it, but sometimes it just doesn't work out.
I truly hope that before he passed, he knew he would be missed!!
R.I.P. Dave! I'm sorry you had to go!
