A Brother passes
I was informed that our good friend, Dave Waits, has lost his long battle with cancer. Dave was always quick to answer a question or offer a solution to any gun problem, and usually you could count on it being the correct answer, even if you didn't agree with the way the answer was delivered. He never hesitated to help with technical advice and logic if asked. I even sent folks to him he had never met, and he helped, often with diagrams and pictures.
I will miss my old friend Yoda, and when Jake and I pray tonight, it will be quite lengthy, asking the Lord for rest for . I hope all of COTEP does the same. Goodbye, Dave

The last few times he and I talked, he was trying to help me prepare to set up my reloading options which I plan to do this year.
He will be missed.
