Dave (Boardo, as many of us called him) was a good friend. He passed away this past Thursday, July 13th. He was 40.
It is never easy to lose a friend, especially someone like him. Dave was always upbeat, kind, friendly and willing to listen. He was also quick with a joke, one-liner, or movie quote (his specialty) to lighten any mood and bring a smile to your face. No doubt the regular members of a particular group of local modemers will think of him anytime any number of movies are watched, but in particular 'The Princess Bride' ("Mawwiage!") or 'MST3K: The Movie' ("I'm not an alien!" & "Hey, the floors look GREAT!").
Dave and I had DJ'ed wedding receptions together, and I personally DJ'ed Dave and Stephanie's reception. Music was always a big part of Dave's life, and he enjoyed playing it as much as anyone I have known.
Friend, fellow DJ, "partner in crime" on more than one occasion...you'll have to play this gig without me.
No more "Huzzah, and well met!". Things just won't be the same around here.
Farewell, old friend. Godspeed to you!

If you knew Dave, you knew how much radio was a part of his life. The following were his web pages, mainly related to Nebraska radio stations: current information, history, etc. I don't know how long these will remain up, but here are the links:
Dave's Nebraska Radio website
Dave's infamous 'Z-95' internet radio site - I have the distinct honor of being "the Official Mobile DJ of Z-95"!
The '4:30 on a Friday Creative' page - This has links to many of Dave's online projects.
