Godspeed, David. I will never forget how you and Jeannie welcomed me into the 928 family.

I've been there with my spouse so I probably know how you feel now. I am very sorry for your loss and your pain. But, be assured there will come a time when the sad memories will diminish and the happy ones will endure. It seems to happen with all of us.

Jeannie, you have my deepest sympathy.

It was a pleasure, an honor to meet David at SITM 2021. Had I bought a 928 sooner, I would have known him longer.

Jeannie, you are amazing—Your devotion to David’s care, your business, putting on a great Sharks In The Mountains event…and so much more. You handled it all so well. He was in good hands.

I look forward to seeing and hearing 40 or 50 or more Porsche V8s rumbling into Banner Elk for the celebration of his life.

You’re in our thoughts and prayers.

Adam

Your being by his side through all of this gave him a comfort that is unequalled by anything else. That was a pure gift to him during this terrible journey he must have been going through. Thank you for doing that for your loved one. I know it was very hard for you. Gunar

Dave is missed. A pillar of the 928 community who forever shaped the ownership experience for all of us. More importantly, a husband and man who's departure leaves the world less than it was before. We're praying for you, Jeannie.
