Liz and family I had many dealings with  Dave over nearly 20 years at CBC. I first met Dave in Calgarty. Dave and Jim Foster came  out to meet with ABC/CTV.

Roone Arledge VP of TV Sports at  ABC insisted that CBC Alberta TV crew be hired to work the  1988 on CTV. The new  PC Govt in Ottawa had "Dictated" that CTV  be awarded the games ov\er CBC!  

Dave ensured that CTV paid top $$$ for CBC crew!

Dave was reluctant  to come to Regina in 1995 for the Grey Cup after surgrey because  of the Novemb er weather. I convinced Dave to come along with Liz I set them up in a large trailer with a big screen TV and a favorite libation!!!! !   

Many good times Dave, salante!
