I just received this email. Dave attended several of the first few Bussin' rallies before moving to Tennessee. Over the years Dave owned (and converted) many buses. He will certainly be missed. Our deepest condolences and prayers to Mary and the rest of Dave's family. I am not going to post Dave's address, but if anyone wants his address to send a card, please email me jconrad@rvbus.net Jack & Paula. "We got a call this afternoon from Leonard Jelkren, who advised he received a call today from Mary Hartley advising that her husband, Dave Hartley, passed away today. She asked that he let the "bus people" know about this, so he called us. Dave and Mary were members of the Southeast Bus Nuts not too long ago. Dave has been in poor health, plus they had moved from Florida to Tennessee, so they were not able to attend rallies and they dropped their membership in the Bus Nuts. Dave remained an active poster on the Bus Conversions bulletin board on the Internet, and many people in the bus community know him from that venue." | ||

Evidently the OEM needed an experienced converter up at THE BIG terminal. My prayers go out to those loved ones who have a hole as big as a bus in their hearts this morning. "Don't be sad that it's over..... be happy that it ever happened at all!" These are the words I find comfort in every morning when I wake up alone. | ||

How Sad - This is the passing of a VERY VERY unique BusNuts - A true GENIUS - Sometimes strange in his own unique ways - but always willing to help others. He will be missed !! Pete and Janice (RTS/Datona) | ||

Ian, Dave has the rvbus.net domain (home of Paula & my email addresses). I think he was at the Bussin' rally that you and Maisie attended in his "new to him at that time" MC-9 Dave lived in the Orlando area before moving to Crossville, TN area in 05 or 06. | ||
