Our hearts go out to Selhorst family, I was fortunate to meet Dave at one of the many Father weekends at Ohio University. We met briefly at one of the games then later in the evening with a whole group bar hopping and house party crashing with the boys. Through one of the neighbor hoods early in the night Dave tripped on an uneven sidewalk pretty typical in Athens. He yelled out skinning his hands, I yelled man down the crowd stopped, helping him up I asked are you ok skid. Well that was his nickname the rest of the night, we had so much fun that night, one of my favorite weekends in Athens. When you meet someone for such a small time and have a memory of a life time, that person is one in a million. Kevin and Rebecca Taylor and the Taylor family
