Joan, Jennifer, and Scott,
I’m sure I’ve shared how much I appreciated Dave’s friendship with you but I want to add my thoughts to the other lovely tributes. Dave hired me to fill a temp position, I’d just moved to Calgary and didn’t know a soul, lucky for me I me this soul. I was so concerned in the interview that I didn’t know anything about the energy industry but Dave said, ‘you gonna work hard?’ I said, ya. ‘you gonna learn what you need to know?’ ya. ‘you gonna laugh at my jokes?’ That’s how it started and that’s how it went for many years. Dave had no shortage of energy to get things done and to do the right thing, he never stopped investigating, inquiring and sharing information, and he always shared a laugh. He showed us all a lot about how to be a good friend, and I know we’ll pay that forward in his honour. Thank you for letting me share time with Dave, I never had quite such a friend.
