I knew Dave a bit and remember him as a real decent fellow, one who everybody liked. We needed people like him back then, and we need them even more now. He will be missed.
Dave was one of the nicest people in our class. I remember running into him once (spring break, or something) after we graduated, and he said he'd quit playing trumpet - how sad, he was an excellent musician.
Dave Helling was probably my best friend in High School having met in Junior High in band/orchestra. Through the years we played our hearts out whether in Band, Marching Band, or Orchestra. We used to practice together and loved going for pizza and pepsi after football games. Dave was the kindest, nicest, most pleasant person one could ever meet. He will be sorely missed by his family and friends. RIP my friend.
David was a great friend and classmate throughout Jr. High and High School. We shared a love of music, band, orchestra, Spike Jones records, pizza after football games, and saved seats for each other on the bus. He will be missed.

As I recall he was a great trumpet player - at least I was not nearly as good as Dave was.
