Re: More sad news
Oh Rennie, those fotos of Dave and his vehicles are priceless, as is the one of Dave and Ginger that Pablo posted. We all go so far back with Dave. As you know, he was the one responsible, indirectly through Pablo, for my finding La Manz in the 80’s. Those were wild and crazy days made even wilder by Dave. I’ll never forget Rodeo days when the ring was where the casino is now. One year when it was gringo day, Dave decided he’d take a shot at riding a bull. Of course he had a belly full of beer and the outcome of the ride was as one would expect, a kick to his jaw as he came flying off. Never one for sympathy, he just had another beer and carried on, after a visit to the Doctor of course. And it was that rodeo lunch that us few gringos in town served up to the locals that sealed it for me, I was hooked on La Manz. His organization of Valentine’s day, with dinner prepared by the guys and red roses for all the women, was so sweet and thoughtful, he really was a prince in so many ways! I shall miss him as will many of us oldtimers. As Patrice often says when someone passes, ‘may flights of angels sing thee to thy rest’.
