In June of 1965 I was an 18 year old just out of high school and moved to Greenwich where my Dad was the new Pastor at the Methodist Church. My first job was at Fishbaugh Construction where I worked with Dave. He was very kind and patient with me. Dave had a great sense of humor, and I always enjoyed being on his crew. He was a great help to me just starting out in life! Through the years we had many good times reminiscing about those early days. My thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time.

Our thought's are with his entire family. Dave was always busy doing something, but never too busy to help out or say hello.

I never met Mr.Seidel, but i felt like I knew him. I worked with his son Charlie for 20 yrs. And he would speak about his father with such reverence. My heart goes out to the Seidel family and the Greenwich community who has lost a good man.
