Hi my name is Dave....



Hi, my name is Dave.

I execute unimaginable kindnesses on a regular basis that few know about.
I have a booming voice and charisma to spare.
I have helped 4 kids on missions, 5 kids married in the temple, and carved that course out for many more.
I married a worthy and wholesome woman who I serve and love.
I wrote a book about Leadership, because I'm an excellent leader.
I say,"I'm just there for the fellowship", but I mean,"I love you and am here if you need me".
I love order and a Saturday project.
I tell engaging and colorful stories that always end with a 'moral'.
I take my family to Hawaii- A LOT.
I should have been born Tongan.
I love salty snacks in front of Sportscenter
I am a 'remodeler' extrordinaire', come on give me a closet, I dare ya...
I will make you a hot breakfast if you come for a visit
I say "Turn Riot at the Liot"
I am the oldest and some say 'wisest' brother.
I have a temper. I can be fierce. AND, I've all but mastered it.
I am equally humble. Once my DIL made me so mad after calling a radio show, I decided to still love her and was kind enough to try to work it out sitting on her floor covered in gold shag carpet.
I love my grandkids and make them happy by giving them funny little nicknames.
I was a superstar trackstar, I am a superstar track coach.
I love action movies.
I miss my dad.
I love the BYU sports programs and give them stuff.
I made a bunch of money in my profession.
I have given a bunch of it away.
I love me some black workout pants with the leg zippers undone
I am perceptive about people and their 'isms'.
I hate dogs that bark in the night, (uh hem, Aspen)
I love the wild wind of the North Shore.
I love what it makes my hair look like too.
I am forgiving and generous.
I love my children with an incredoulous intensity
I miss my brothers that died too young.
I was a Stake president of epic effectiveness
I have friends that respect and admire me
I have children who worship me
I have served 3 missions
I am a dynamic and rare combination of prosperity and generosity.
I have daughters in law who write stuff about me on my birthday

Hi, I am Dave. I have built an eternal family that adores me, honors me and strives to be like me. I'm going to have a pretty great eternity of 'rejoicing in my posterity' thanks. I'm Dave. Its my birthday. TODAY!
