David John Way, known
by many as “No Neck”,
passed away unexpectedly
on August 15th, 2022,
at the age of 61 in Grand
Junction, Colorado.
Dave spent many years of his life as a dedicated golf
professional for the PGA of America. He spent time at
many golf courses on the Western Slope of Colorado
and other states in the Western US. He spread his love
of golf to many and was the PGA of Colorado West
Chapter player of the year in 1999. He left the golf
business in 2008 after nearly 3 decades. In his free
time, he would explore and fly fish many of the rivers,
creeks and streams in Colorado with his friends and
family. He cared deeply for the outdoors, the water that
flows through it, and the fish that he was able to catch
and release.
Dave was loved by many and made an impact on
more. He was a loyal friend, a loving husband and
father and a phenomenal teacher of the things he was
passionate about.
Dave is survived by his wife of 38 years: Kari (Dole),
and his two sons: Riley and Marshal; his father, Norm;
sister, Tracy (Kevin). He was preceded in death by his
mother, Jackie.

Golf Course, Grand Junction, Colorado on Sunday,
