David D. McNeill

Dave was an extraordinary man with a smile that could light up any room and brighten even the darkest of days. He loved his animals and his ability to get up and always try his hardest at whatever he had before him. He loved his family, friends and spending time in the wondrous mountains. There was never a day that he lived to regret, every moment he spent was a positive one. He will be greatly missed by all of his friends, family and the friends who became family.

Dave, I am going to miss you so much. I remember our childhood fondly, so many memories. Then we lost touch for a number of years while you were getting on with life with your beautiful new family. I know that was a very rewarding time for you. Then I’m so glad we were able to reconnect a few years ago. You had a simple but amazing life. Enjoy your next journey with the family up there that had left us all too soon. I love you so much!

Dave you’ve been a very good friend in the almost 30 years i’ve known you. You have a great sense of humor that everyone loves. You were always willing to help out with whatever anybody needed day or night. We had a lot of great times hunting and fishing with your dad AKA Pops, my son and brother, My Daughter always loved going to your house on Exposition in Lakewood. She loved the rabbits, ferrets, dogs and cats. Hayden and Chelsie love you very much and so do I. I’ll never forget the one year while hunting you made time to teach Hayden how to drive a stick shift with your old black ford truck. I love you Dave!

Dave you left us way to soon! You will be missed by everyone who knew you. The sound of your laughter was contagious. You have been a great friend and mentor from the first day we met. We will be having a beer or two when we meet again. Love you brother!
