    Dave, you will be greatly missed. Though you wouldn’t train a certain 3 year old, you did train her first Arabian stallion that bred in her a love for horses and the Arabian in particular. Thank you for everything you have done for both horses and riders.

    Dave was a true professional. He didnt know me but I was introduced by a friend. He spent many hours helping me to buy a new horse by looking at videos and evaluating horses. He had a vast ocean of knowledge and was generous in sharing it. I will forever be grateful to him for his help.
