Dave Bollman, my friend, my mentor, my 1 pocket partner passed away today from cancer. My prayers go out to his daughter, Maryanne, who is a 100% disabled Veteran and was Dave's pride and joy.

The Beaumeister, good solid, tall, east coast player. Those tall guys are hard to beat sometimes. Great table demeanor, RIP my friends, and to family he will be missed, he was a pleasure to be around.

What a great person and fine player he was. Dave was on the PGA golf tour before becoming a professional pool player. No one else ever did that I'm sure. He won some big tournaments, including the Classic Cup in Chicago, beating Jose Parica in the finals!
I had a helluva Bank Pool match with Dave a long, long time ago. He was a perfect gentleman to play with, sharking was not in his vocabulary. I was always happy to see him when I went back to Norfolk. I would go over to his shop and reminisce about the old days. I'm gonna miss you buddy!
Dave was 6'6" and was definitely one of the best "tall" players of all time.
