I just saw a post on Facebook and it looks like our own .RM. passed away. RIP David. I didn't know you, but your opinion was always very valuable.

Ahhh D**n Im really sorry to hear that.

Never met the man but I've always respected his opinions and follwed his suggestions.

May God rest his soul.

Mike

Wow, that's sad news.  RIP reel man.

Sad to hear. He was a wealth of information.

May he rest in peace. 

Chris, do you have a link to any info?  I don't want to call down there, and disturb his wife.

 

I'm in a little bit of shock on this one.  Dave was both very helpful to members on this forum, but to me personally.  He could be a little crusty, but he ALWAYS had time to chat about fishing, reels, rod building, and just anything.

 

Sad, sad news.

All I saw was a note from his wife on his FB account

Sorry to read about his passing.

 

What was his handle on the Forum?

.RM.

Found him and now remember him and his posts.

 

Only 68, too.

 

Big loss to the Forum members.

 

RIP.

d**n man....  i thought he was a wealth of knowledge when it came to reels and reel repair.....  thoughts go out to his family.

David was well known and respected in this area for his rod building and reel repair skills, he has helped many local anglers over the years and will be missed.

R.I.P. David

Sorry to hear! Best to his wife and family. Enjoyed his posts.

Sad sad news,

What???? While he and I disagreed  from time to time, I valued his opinion and always read his posts. What a loss. Thoughts go out to his family.

Always had something informative to say..like the opposite of Raider. R.I.P RM.

RIP

He was a valuable asset when it came to reel maintenance.

Terrible news.  Like others, we were at odds at times, but I still respected him and his knowledge.  Sad day indeed.

Sorry to here that he passed. I enjoyed reading his posts. He told it like it is.

RIP

Always valued his opinion on reels, most anything else for that matter. Thoughts and prayers to his family, we lost a good one there. 

Sad to hear this. RIP.

I'm gonna miss him. He was a big help to me, always making time to answer my questions. We banged heads a few times; agreeing to disagree about some things, but I never truly lost my respect for the man.

 

Every time I read one of his "crusty old man" posts, I thought of my grandmother, and one of her sayings, getting a good chuckle.

 

There's an old expression; "he calls a spade a spade". means "he tells it like it is".

 

My grandmother's version was, "I like him, he doesn't call a spade a spade, he calls it a &%#$ing shovel".

 

That was David Green.

 

RIP, amigo.

A true loss to the Forum and fishing community. R.I.P. David and blessings to you and yours.
