David was known to most as Captain Dave. He piloted a boat up and down the rainbow river for divers, floaters, friends and family. He would give us interesting stories of the different wildlife and the wonderful springs of the river. Captain Dave made friends up and down the river and on the internet telling of his love for the Rainbow River and his family. He made friends where ever he went.
A celebration of his life will be held on Saturday, January 6, 2018 10:00 am at the First United Methodist Church of Dunnellon 21501 W. Highway 40 Dunnellon, Florida 34431.
It has been requested by the family that you wear "Glad rags not Sad rags". We are celebrating Captain Dave's Life!
There's still time to send flowers to the Memorial Service at the First United Methodist Church of Dunnellon at 10:00 AM on January 6, 2018.

I remember him. He like so many of us change as we grow older. He doesn't look like the same person. So sorry to hear about his passing.Richard "Rick" Sebenoler (1970)
Adios Dave...even with my fading memory I recall a pretty easy going and affable guy that seems to have lived a pretty fullfilling life.
