KCSkydivingCtr 0 #1 August 1, 2006 This weekend, we lost six fellow skydivers, including a good friend to many, Dave Paternoster. We have set up a memories page for Dave which can be viewed at http://www.kcskydiving.com/dave.html. We ask that any memories, pictures, or comments be posted here or sent to jump@kcskydiving.com so that they can be added to this page. God bless, Paul and JoannaThe Kansas City Skydiving Center Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BASE864 0 #5 August 1, 2006 Dave, I'm going to miss our big-boy freefly jumps. I looked forward to jumping with you at the many boogies we found ourselves at. Pat and I will always have room for you on our big-boy loads. We will all miss your kind heart and big smile. My thoughts and prayers go out to the rest of those that perished in this terrible crash. Fly free our brother. Later, BASE864 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pditto 0 #6 August 1, 2006 I had the pleasure of being a passenger when Dave was getting his tandem rating. One of the most fun jumps I ever had. He was a great person with a true passion for the sport. I will cherish the memories I have of big Dave! Prayers to his family. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dmitch31 0 #8 August 1, 2006 Dave was the coolest! He was the first person I met when I went out to Quantum to do my first Tandem. We walked up and he was there packing his chute after a jump. He was the first to walk up with a smile and talk to us. I've never forgotten that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
