Dave was a 1957 graduate of Bellefontaine High School. He also graduated from Hobart School of Welding. Dave retired from NHTSA and then owned and operated Harley Repairs until he was 80 years old. There will never be another one like him. Not many things he couldn’t fix or fabricate. Had some awesome rides and other experiences with him! Harley guy through and through. Loved to fish and loved to race Sprint Cars back in the day. Loved his Miller Lite!! Enjoy your ride in the sky with all your Harley Buddies that have preceded you! Keep the shiny side up! FTW
Old Dad’s last Low Life Family Reunion will be held at Doyle R. Miller Amvets Post #39 in Lakeview on Saturday, October 1, from 1 to 3 p.m. “DUE TO THE FACT THAT THIS IS A PRIVATE CLUB, NO GUNS ARE TO BE FIRED THIS YEAR.”
Arrangements are in the care of Shoffstall Funeral Home, Lakeview, OH. Condolences may be expressed at shoffstallfuneralhome.com.
