Dave was a member of the Saskatoon Golf and Country Club for over 40 years. Some of his greatest pastimes were golf games there with his friends and family. He loved all sports and was an avid Riders, Blue Jays, Oilers and Blades fan. A highlight for him was attending the 1989 Grey Cup in Toronto. He looked forward to attending the Blades games with friends and has become a familiar face around the rink as a season ticket holder for several years. Some of his fondest memories were traveling with Carrol, his family and friends. He loved to spend time with his grandchildren teaching them his golf swing or taking them to the park.
