Mike, Sue, Brenda & the rest of the family: I was so sorry to hear of your fathers passing. He was a good friend to my husband, Bob Young, who was also a Madison Police Officer. Bob always enjoyed his interaction with Dave "Motor" on/off the job. This will be a rough time for all of you but you will find the strength to get you through. Remember all the good times, fun times.....it's okay to laugh. "Motor" would have wanted that. I can hear the two of them now in heaven....catching up on old times. My deepest sympathy. Kathy Young
