Dave was an outdoorsman, he spent many years hunting in remote areas, flying in by plane and setting up camp. He got many different animals, some of which are on display in The Eagle Plains Hotel up by the Artic Circle, which he managed a few winters so the owner could have time off. When Dave wasn’t hunting, he was an electrician by trade, along with having his refrigeration certification.

A Social Gathering to remember Dave will be held at The Lucky  Lake Community Hall on Monday January 6, 2025 at 1:00pm
