Our deepest sympathy to Dave's family. Dave and I were classmates at Iowa State, but our paths did not cross after that. I have fond memories of Dave. God be with all of you who mourn his loss.
Cheryl and family:
My favorite memory of David was when he went to a book sale and brought back a couple of books for my kids to use in school to help with research papers. He was always so thoughtful of others and such a caring man. I will miss him. I will be praying for you and keep you in my thoughts.
I am deeply saddened by the passing of David. There were so many times that he would come in to donate and just want to talk. He was a very friendly, smart and sweet man. I will truly miss visiting with him while he donated and his bright, warm smile. My heart is with you in this time of sadness and I will be thinking of you all. You will be missed David.

I was saddened to hear of the passing of David. The Pence family was always a big part of my high school days. David was always such a postitive influence and kept Levi and me out of trouble more than once. My thoughts and prayers are with Dave and his family.
What a great loss to the world. i'll never forget being at his granddaughters birthday and him coming to me in tears because he new i was going through bad divorce. He truley was a selfless man.(and he always smelled good ..lol)
I have many memories of David when he worked for my Dad. He had the most optimistic soul he would take the worst job you could do and enjoy it. We lost a great man. I am sorry I lost touch with you guys.I am praying for gods peace and comfort to be on you at this time.

So many memories of Cheryl and Dave. In December of 2010, Dave came to Eldora by himself to attend my mother's funeral. Cheryl was in MN and the weather was terrible. Dave sat beside me during the luncheon and held my 1 yr. old grandson throughout the meal. He was so very kind and thoughtful.
Thank you for everything you always did for my family. All the ice cream!! And shoveling our driveway in your tshirt. You were an amazing human being. Rest in peace.
I miss you dad! I know you always be there to guide me through life, even though you are no longer here. I never thought I would miss your advice, but I do already! Thank you for guiding me into the strong, independent person that I am. It may not have always showed, but all I ever wanted was to make you proud. I love you!
