So sorry to hear of Dave's passing. He was not only a pillar of our community but also a very humble, amiable, and funny person. What he tolerated as we were growing up is legendary. He always had a story to tell that no doubt had a life lesson embedded in it somewhere. He will truly be missed at the fire dept and in our community. Our condolences to entire Howe family!
