To the Lee Family
Dave will be remembered as a kind, generous, loving, and thoughtful man who was good to me & my family. He loved my family, and i was touched he offered to give a eulogy at moms funeral. My brother recalls him as a gentle pumpkin. My aunt loved him thinking of her by sending cards & pictures of the twins. My niece & daughter liked Dave instantly. His friend Mike recalls his good sense of humor.
Most importantly, he had faith in God & believed in family. He was proud of his two girls who matured into career women, wives, & mothers, Dan, he wanted you to know how special you were to him, always wanted & loved. And he loved being “Grandpa”….so excited watching the twins grow & going to sports games & dining out with the kids.
Dave believed in my new role as an educator, lecturer & sales person& we had many painful hours molding some business critiques.
Our IU fan will be sorely missed.
I’m so glad he has been able to reconnect with each sibling & child through the miles. You all have meant so much to him. Penny & the Baker Family ❤️😇💜
