Leavenworth, KS; grandchildren, Mason, Cameron, Myles, Garrett, Ryan, Kathryn and Khloe Badgley; brothers, George Badgley and wife, Delonda of Greensboro and Paul Badgley and wife, Sylvia of Burnsville, NC.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorials please be made to Tribute to the Troops, 125 Ivybrook Drive, Statesville, NC 28625, as this was something very near and dear to Dave and his family.
