Dave’s almost 6-year fight with ALS came to an end last night peacefully at his home with family around him. Though we will miss him dearly, we find great solace in knowing that he is no longer in pain, no longer tied to that wheelchair, and today runs free with those who went before him in heaven.
Dave beat the odds with his long fight against ALS, and that fight along with who he was as a person inspired so many people. That inspiration led those on the Racing for ALS team to raise over 1.1 million dollars since June of 2018 in his honor to help fund the fight against ALS, and to help others battling this disease. That is who David was. He always had a kind word and a wave no matter how he was feeling, or of course a good joke. David loved being able to help others, and David was truly overwhelmed and beyond appreciative of the love shown to him by those who rallied around him and were just an amazing support to him. Even though a thank you doesn’t seem to suffice, we say thank you again to all who have been a part of this journey and helped Dave in his fight to #endals.
He is racing today, he is free, he hurts no more. Thanks be to God.
