David, a bright, engaging denizen of Scuttlebut’s, enjoyed by all except those who didn’t want to watch that many hot rods making only left turns on North American race tracks.
David has been genuinely missed by all who still appear at the ‘Butt and recognize something special has been lost from our lives.
A few days before his departure, my bride Theresa drove him to his reservation supplier of butts of another name, and despite his obviously frailing condition with radio cranked up they sang ‘60s and ‘70s tunes at full throttle. Can’t comment on the pitch but Theresa said he carried all tunes very well.
Another friend of David’s, Jamie Burton, described him very well - “He got in his car, locked the doors, chose his highway and drove away looking back with a smile on his face.”
Travel well our friend on this your next voyage.
