If he was using power tools in a shop, I’d guess his minimum age would be like 14 at the time, which would make his minimum age today about 63 if I did my math correctly. But that’s just the minimum age, if we take the median age of US men over 14 in 1977 (or a sloppy estimate), that number is in the high 30s, putting the expected age for Dave in his late 80s, which is higher than the average life expectancy for the entire period of his life. So my guess is that Dave didn’t make it to today.
I wonder where Dave is now.

I expected him to not be with us today as well.
He left something behind though. The plaque might have outlived him, and if not, we’re still talking about him. Dave, as of now, is still alive.
Can’t believe I missed this opportunity earlier.
Dave’s not here, man.
Hopefully not smeared across a dozen bandsaw blades.
