Ronnie you are talking about a very special very knowledgeable man. I had the pleasure of talking to David many times but unfortunately I lost his contact info. He is a lot like you Ronnie full of great info with the credentials to back it up. Good luck.

I gave David a bunch of blocks back about 15 or so years ago. But I think he had cancer , not sure, long time ago. Yes he was a very talented man.

Re: Anyone know a David Dunbar I think form Rhode Island
This past summer I saw Dave a few times at the Friday night cruise in Halifax which is near Plympton. He was not looking well. Let us know if you were able to contact him with the info from KDL. Yes...He is a wealth of knowledge.
I'll look and see if I have another number to reach him. |
