Dave was born and raised in Lansdale, PA before moving to Delaware. He has been living in Trappe for the past 18 years. Dave taught 5th Grade Math at Upper Merion Middle School where he was known for his collection of crazy ties and was awarded "Teacher of the Year." He also devoted much of his time outside the classroom to the College Settlement Camp as well as the North Penn Boys & Girls Club. Dave was an avid runner and was active in a local running club. He was creative and also enjoyed woodworking and home improvement projects. Dave loved time spent during the summer in Maine where he fully renovated his family's home. Dave lived every day to the fullest and he will be dearly missed.
