Alex's post on face book says it all... it reads.... "Dave, you were an inspiration, the things I have learned, in tennis and in life are endless; I can't describe how much I enjoyed going to my Thursday lesson, and working with you every day. You will forever be missed"
Dave was a true blessing in our lives...
We are so sad and will miss him dearly. Last night Alex said he wished he would have said one more thing to DAve on Tuesday night before he left and that was "Thank You".... Our thoughts are prayers are with Dave's family. Thanks for sharing such a wonderful man.
