I worked for Dave at DECCO and will miss him.   He was more than just a boss he became more like family to me.  
He was a hard core business man at times, and could be a gentle, good person more of the time.  I have many friends my days at DECCO, we were all like family.  Dave really cared about the people that worked for him.   He was a very proud man, proud of his accomplishments, and proud of the accomplishments of everyone around him.  
  I will always remember the times I would go in his office to present an idea to him, and seeing him look at me thru the bottom of his glasses and saying "I just don't think that's a good idea".   I knew right then the answer was no, and he would NOT change his mind!    
He brought a light to my life and I will never forget him.  
I saved a voicemail from him, I will always keep it.  
Dave- I wish I could give you a call back!!    -Cindy Jones
