My husband & I met Dave & Rita over 30 yrs ago. Very nice people. I remember getting a good deal on CB radio equipment from Dave, and Rita picking beans from our garden on Winters(Young’s)Creek. You are in our prayers, Rita.

Rita,
I’m so very sad to here that you have lost Dave. Being together over 30 years is quit a testament to both of you. Losing a husband is so hard. In time this sadness will lift and you’ll remember so many first times that you had together and those memories will put a smile on your face and bring great comfort to you.
Sincerely
Cindie Gunwall (Gilbert)
