Jeff deemed Dave "The Eagle"

​

"When The Eagle had arrived, he went to the third floor and methodically and patiently moved from office to office checking with every member of the caucus."

"Anyone that had the chance to ever spend time with or to at least be around him and hear the words he would preach; they would come from his heart. He was an MVP in life.

"He came to the floor everyday with a greeting; Clicked his heels and it was always a disarming gesture. It said a lot about the type of person he was and how he wanted to interact with everyone."

​

"With Dave as our guide, let us continue to advocate for Arizona’s children and ensure that their voices are heard and prioritized."
