Dave Holstein has always made me laugh. Other words that come to mind when thinking about my father-in-law are supportive, playful, easy-going and family-oriented. I've always been drawn to the "quiet, funny ones" and Dave epitomizes this description. It is pretty amazing that he's developed these characteristics with a life filled with hardships including the early deaths of his parents and constant medical complications. In the past few years, Dave has experienced a stroke, likely caused by poor blood flow to his brain, fluctuations in platelet counts due to his ITP, and eventually, memory problems. Alzheimer's is known as a disease that first takes away a person's personality and then their body. Luckily, Dave had his sense of humor even when in pain. For all who knew Dave, loved him and will continue to love him, please help us raise funds to find a cure for this horrible disease.
