I hadn't seen Dave for years, but beginning in Jr High, we were together almost every day. Lots of "firsts" together, and so many great memories. I often stayed at the Wilke's and became a part of the family. I remember "Chief" and Marion would keep me in line, and my parents would return the favor to Dave. We spent a lot of time in my old Falcon, and would just replace the windshield once a month...usually caused by Dave's head hitting it! R.I.P. my friend....see you down the road..
I am deeply saddened to hear that Dave has passed away. I've known him for about 30 years and worked for him right out of high school. I don't think there was anything he couldn't fix or job he couldn't get done. I learned a lot from him.. He was not only a great boss but a great person and friend.
There was never a dull moment when you were with him and I'm so glad I had the chance to know him growing up. I know he will be truly missed and my thoughts and prayers are with the Wilke family.
Your friend,
Bart
