Dave, a resident of Warsaw, drove the short distance from his residence to Walmart but did not return home. After over an hour and a half passing, Mrs. Jones went to look for Dave and found him in his vehicle, he never made it into the store. No foul play was involved, his passing was of natural causes.
Cpl. Jones at age 65, with a birthday coming next month, had over 40 years in law enforcement with 17 of those years as Warsaw’s Chief of Police. Dave loved his work, his community and his brothers and sisters in law enforcement and his family. Law enforcement was his life, he will be missed beyond words.
