The Soo Rocks Bids Farewell to Local Businessman
The Soo Rocks bids farewell to one of our town's small businessmen who kept a good number of cars and trucks on the road over the years here in the Soo. This past week, the Soo lost a good car machanic, one who has been visible to us here in the Soo for years. Many will remember Dave from his Midas Car Car Days before Devine Car Care became a local fixure on Ashmun.
On Saturday, David and his driver Rob Pontus set off for Texas as Dave prepares to begin a new chapter in his life. Rob who left with David, will not be staying out in Texas, but will be flying back to the Soo after delivering David to Texas.
Ashmun sure will look a little funny without the busy car care business which we've become accustomed to looking at as we drive down the street. It was hard not to "rubber neck" when driving by to see whose car was being worked on or who was standing outside talking with Dave on any given day.
Dave also made a good number of friends at the local Dondee Bowling Alley where he was known to frequent. He will be missed among his fellow friends in addition to his loyal customers.
Dave and his love of cars and car racing will be missed in our local community and the void of another empty business on Ashmun will serve to remind us that our city is always in a constant flux as we adapt and change.
We wish you well Dave, in your new venture and were glad to have you as part of our community for the length of time we did.
