Arnold must be scared for his life these days, Corney, Franco, Draper, many others from his generation getting old and dropping  :-\

That’s how life goes

Also Paul Grymkowski

BB. If I recall correctly ... David Paul got a lot of his furniture-making lumber  from the old POP (Pacific Ocean Park) Pier which was destroyed by a fire.

This hurts.  Dave is one of my heroes and not just for bodybuilding.  This is a man who will surely hear the words, "Well done faithful servant".

When I was a kid jerking in my cellar I had an advertisement pic of Dave on the ceiling over my *Bed.... looking at the pic made me squeeze out an extra *stoke or two many a time.

Thanks for sharing wes. Many young muscle pumpers have similar tales .

Turned his life  around.   I met him and knew him to be genuine in all ways.

how so?

What is it you truly seek?  If you wish to know more about Dave, he has a web site.  Again, what is it you truly seek?

You're in the industry and you dont know Drapers story?

He was heavily into drugs and his life was headed to an early demise. He straightened out and lived a life of purpose and faith.

Draper made Arnold a huge wooden bed for his wedding.  Arnold still uses it.

He was part of a golden era.  If you don’t get it, you
never will.

Like many others in this thread, Dave was more than a bodybuilding legend who inspired us, he was also a man who lost his way and then found himself again, and in doing so inspired others who have traveled a similar path. Rest in Peace.

I don't see it that way at all.  I see this more as a good old days brother Iran Warrior pic.  Also with Arnold in there it instantly gets more attention for Dave.

Draper had a good, (although old school) internet page....

Seems he had cardial problems for years if not decades.

RIP Bomber

...says Dr Dutch.
