Good memories of Dave from the late sixties to today include pinball, sports cars, school days and of course, music. He was a class act and will be missed by all who knew him.

Susie and family and Heather. Dave will be missed we were buddies years ago and became reacquainted 12-15 years ago when he stepped off of the stage at Hog’s Breath in Key West an asked me if I was Jim Strathmeyer. What an awesome happenstance? I had the opportunity to enjoy the music that Dave and his Bandmates created. I am no musician but music is a big part of my life.

Susie and Family.  You probably won’t remember me, but I graduated with your sister at MT and we used to hang out at Skyline pool.  I played drums and Dave and I were in a band together in high school.  Dave lived up the street from me in Grandview Heights.  I saw him about a year to a year and half ago at Home Depot.  He was standing in line in back of me.  Even though he a long beard I knew right away that it was Dave. Needless to say I was shocked and deeply saddened to see that Dave passed away.  Even though it has been many many years since we were in a band together I always regarded Dave as a caring and special person.  Glad to see he knew Jesus as his Savior.  My deepest sympathy for you and your family.  Doug Bowers

Dear Susie and Casey – Please accept my condolsences on the passing of Dave.  I was sad to read about his passing. Dave was always fun to talk to; very full of life.  Dave fought a good fight and is now resting in our heavenly Father’s arms.  May God provide you and your family with the peace He only may give.  May God’s promises of eternal life give you hope that only God can give.  May God’s presence in your life give you the strength to live on earth as we await the time when we get to join others in the heavenly host.  Nancy Marshall, Dan’s mother

Dave was always a joy to be around. Great sense of humor and full of life. I worked with Dave in one of his musical projects and as a fellow bassist, we always shared bass centric stories. He loved sharing new gear aquisitions with a little boy’s enthusasim. Even though I haven’t seen him in years there’s still a hole in my heart. RIP my friend. Condolences to Susie and his extended family.

Huxta family,
I am so sorry to hear this. I had the pleasure of taking care of him and he always put a smile on my face. I will remember him as being one of my favorite patients ever! Love to you all during this difficult time.

David was such an Angel of a patient and everyone always felt so blessed to take care of such a sweet and caring soul. He always had a smile on his face anytime he came onto 8 Lime, and always made our day with his contagious energy. Praying for you all at this time.

May 05, 2021

Dave was great neighbor and friend. He will be deeply missed. Dave and I had great conversations about music, Philly sports, cars, the weather and much more. I will especially miss seeing Dave drive one of his many cool vintage cars he owned up the cul-de-sac and out for a spin. Condolences to the entire Huxta family.

What a Joy to have known and loved Dave.  Throughout my time in LancasterCo., with all our Band times, Dave was such fun to be with.  An extraordinary bass player, it was a pleasure to see him play.  He had a wicked smart sense of humor and approaching him, you could feel his warmth, caring Spirit, his Joy and kindness. Our loss is Heaven’s Gain.  Enjoy your Time in Heaven, Dave…we’ll meet again, for sure. <3

My late husband Herb Brooks worked with Dave at Dutch Wonderland. After his retirement, we enjoyed watching Copper Sky play at local establishments. Dave gave Herb words of encouragement during his battle with ALL leukemia. Sorry to her the same dreadful disease took Dave to soon too. Cherish those sweet memories of Dave to help you during your time of loss. 

May 05, 2021

Many memories of crazy nights going out to hear Dave play in each of the bands he was in, dancing the night away. Those thoughts always had a special place in our hearts, but now more than ever with Daves passing. We will miss you my friend. All our love to Susie and family. Charlie and Monica.

I was instantly heartbroken when I heard the news from Mark. Dave was truly a wonderful man who was loved by all that knew him. His music was not only a previous gift to him but to all who heard it. Dave is now singing with the angels. He will never be forgotten. Our hearts and prayers go out to the entire Huxta family.

It has been several days since we learned of Dave’s passing and Laura and I still cannot find the words that accurately describe the depth of loss that we feel.
Nothing we can say here can ease the pain every Huxta is feeling except maybe to know that you are not alone in missing this most exceptional being and soul.
Deepest love and sympathy Dave, Susie and every Huxta, 
Laura and Greg
