Happy Birthday Dave Tschiggfrie!
A whistle salute and cally-ope serenade today in honor of David Tschiggfrie's birthday. Dubuque's steamboat buff extraordinaire, former DQ crew member and father of Jonathan Tschiggfrie (who has followed in his dad's footsteps) I have treasured Dave's friendship for the past 37 years.
A gentleman and human being of the highest order, nobody could ask for a better friend.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVE!!!!
P.S. I won't disclose Dave's milestone birthday today, but here's a clue. He was "launched" the same year that the Str. GOLDEN EAGLE sank for the second (and final) time -- and the year that the DQ came to the Mississippi River system!
