Dave and I were friends for many years!! Yes, his great big bear hugs were awesome. Dave was right by my side when I was presented the Ironman Everyday Hero Award in 2009 - not as a representative or any formal capacity, just as a friend. He and my son Riley were best buds. Riley cried yesterday. I sure wish I had taken more photos . . . I guess you just don't think about that with those close. Maybe I need more photos with you Herbert.
