Daves dad was the epitimy of what a person should be. he had been busting his butt to help take care of his parents, and other family members as well. He was always there for Dave and us when we needed him at the shop, and always volenteered when we didnt need him. One thing I know about Dave is he loves his family tremendously. I know I havent had the same feelings about my family, I never got to know them, but Dave just as his dad does goes out of his way to help his family, even when it was so frustrating. Paul Vasser is in my thoughts forever, Im gonna miss you Paul, you treated with respect, and that means the world to me. Dave, your dad was the best, If you need something, you know where to find me.

Wow,
Guys I was not expecting to see this when I took time out this evening to check the board. I really appreciate everyones kind words and prayers. I have suffered many major losses in my lifetime but this one hit the family hard.
My Dad was always convinced that he would be buring me from a car crash and always rode my butt about some of the things I did. I never thought it would be the other way around. I know everyone has to bury there parents at somepoint of time.I just didnt ever think it would be so soon. I wish now I would have taken time out from work this last six years and went to the races and fishing trips he asked me to go to.I just always figured there was plenty of time to do that later.This puts a all new meaning to Life is to short for me.

Im leaving tommorow for Idaho. I will be back June the 6th on Monday.Joey will be here running things and I will be working with him off my cell phone.
You guys have a safe memorial day and do not forget DONT DRINK AND DRIVE.
Talk to you guys soon.
Thanks
Dave

Sorry to hear that Dave, I know it's tough. I lost my girlfriend in a car crash a few weeks ago, losing someone so unexpectedly like that is just...tough. There's no other word for it.

We're all here for you if you need anything
