Dave worked at Motorola in Phoenix, Arizona prior to moving to Dallas, Texas. There, he accepted a job with Texas Instruments, where he worked on the team that developed the integrated circuit for our first computers.

He spent the last four years of his life with his daughter's family in Kennesaw, Georgia, enthusiastically fostering his only granddaughter's love of golf.
