“I remember thinking, "here's this great Irish guy, hope he does well." Little did I know he was already working circles around us native guys, just in terms of totally immersing himself in the community, making everyone feel that he was a kindred spirit to them, and he was. Dave was never a chameleon. He was never pretending to be any of these things. He did it because he was genuinely interested in everyone, wanting to love everyone.”
