I'm so sorry that this note is so late; we fell away from contact since I left Lowe's.  I just heard today of David's passing and am truly and deeply saddened. He was my work partner for almost a Decade on a daily basis, but much more than that, a true mentor and friend. I will never forget the daily battles with Store Managers or the Friday stress-relief with a couple/few/many beers. You are with your parents and God, Brother, rest well!

I was deeply saddened to hear about Dave's passing. My heartfelt condolences go out to the Kangas family during this difficult time. I hope that you all find comfort in the wonderful memories you have of Dave, who was a truly good man. I have fond memories of him at baseball games, banging on the fence and making sure the umpires made the right calls. I also remember the trips we took together, during which he always made the group more enjoyable with his hilarious personality. May he rest in peace now.

Sincerely,
Jim and Lori Johnson

We are so sorry to learn of Dave's passing. He was a favorite customer of ours.  We enjoyed working with him on his decal orders.

Though we haven’t been in touch for many years since I left Lowe’s I’ve always wondered how Dave was . He was hilarious with a huge heart!! Hockey was our conversation and he would even come see my band on occasion at Mulligans. I’m so sorry to hear we have lost a Great Person.

I am so sorry to hear this news.  Dave worked for me in Loss Prevention with Lowe's.  He was a great guy and we had many good times together.

My condolences to the entire family.

Mark Johnson

My heartfelt condolences go to Dave's family and friends. He was an honorable and kind soul who always had a word of encouragement to me. I will never forget what he taught me that made me be more successful.  He will be so missed. Rest In Peace Dear One.

Kangas, It feels like yesterday we were walking through lowes koger center and your wife had called telling you she had ordered big boy furniture to be delivered later that week! It was awesome to have you as a manager and see you move up as well as myself and then to find you would re-enter my bubble when you became the District manager and did our audits you always had my back and believed in me….there’s some parts of the lowes world that were not that way but you were always a constant.  I appreciated that….I’m so sad to hear of your departure we certainly lost one of the good ones.  Prayers to your family and that the memories stitch together your broken hearts.

Dave was a man with a big heart.  I first met him while working at Lowe's.  He saw potential in me and helped me in numerous ways to help me navigate my career with Lowe's.  His hearty laugh, quick wit, and an even quicker tongue.  I can't tell you how many times that man made me double over with laughter.  He was a fierce Wolverine fan which I loved to rib him about.   But even more than that he was the best family man I have met.  He loved his wife and 2 boys.  Talked about them all the time when I was with him.  The pride in his eyes when he talked about the boys and their hockey.   Please know that my thoughts and heartfelt condolences are with you during this difficult time.

Many years of fond memories working with you, may you rest in peace and keep heaven laughing!
