It was in Mexico that he met his wife, Elizabeth Alor Najera, and the two were married in April of 2016.Dave, as he was affectionately known by his friends, enjoyed his time in Mexico. He spent his days there traveling to different parts of the country with Elizabeth and friends, and riding his ATVs. He was an adventurous soul who loved things that were fast moving. Dave participated in motocross racing and was sponsored by Bultaco and Yamaha. He also enjoyed racing his speed boat on the Colorado River and driving his Porsche at high rates of speed. Along with his need for speed, Dave was very mechanically inclined. In his spare time, you could find him working on his cars, motorcycles, ATVs, and boat engines, or taking a part a microwave just because.
