Dave was my "cube-mate" when he first came to Sikorsky. We sat together for several years. We've always stayed in touch and I was saddened when he was fired from his job at Sikorsky by the totally inconsiderate obnoxious boss he had.
Dave was a Great Guy to work with. I was the person that gave him rides to and from work and to go grocery shopping when he totaled his car. Dave was the person that brought me work to my home when I was laid up with my torn ACL. What an
adventure that was. He'd pull up in his car, I'd hobble out of the house on crutches with two beers to the end of my patio, he'd get out of his car, wheel up to the bottom step, and hand me my daily assignments, I'd hand him a beer, We'd discuss work, and he'd leave and I'd hobble back into the house. Two "handicapped" guys working together at their best.
We both ALWAYS laughed at that experience, while working for A GREAT BOSS at Sikorsky Aircraft, Jim Patchkovsky.
