RIP.
That picture looks pretty recent. They both look very healthy, and I always felt that David looked very young for his age. 62 is also very young.
-
RIP. Her tits held up nicely. Wonder if they can be donated?
-
Nice cannon-balls. PIP... (Protrude in Peace).

Always a fan of Dave.
RIP......too young.

Nope, sold it to brother Tony, right before he started the Wendy's food chain.

Dave was an excellent mid-Ironage bodybuilder, who competed into the late Ironage, when he was into his forties.
He was also good looking, and looked pretty young, even over 40 [maybe still does]. I haven't seen him in contest shape since a 2004 issue of Musclemag, where he had a photo spread, and was still in shape [around the time Dave turned 44 - and I felt he looked a lot younger than his biological age].
His sister looks young and healthy in that picture too - it's surprising that someone who looks that well would die so young, but I guess genetics are a mixed bag, and some things in life are out of our hands...or perhaps she had some bad habits that we don't know about. Either way, 62 is too young to go, IMO. I think Keith "Only Me" Jones was 56, and he was something like 600-lb at 6'1". It's interesting to me how that can happen. But as is life, I guess.

I’m confused here, Dave isn’t the one that’s dead? He’s still alive

Correct. Most of us are mourning the loss of his sisters massive titona's (of piece).

Correct. It just seemed to me that enough people on here didn't know who Dave was, that it was worthy of explaining his history in the bodybuilding world.
This photo of Dave was posted from the article below which was published online in 2018:
https://isodiol.com/news/isodiol-international-inc-announces-former-ifbb-professional-bodybuilder-david-hawk-joins-iso-sport-management-team/
This "Ronline Report" below is from 2017, and gives a better idea of how Dave looks today:
Does Muscular Development / Steve Blechman still owe Ron Harris $100,000?
How much money does Steve owe Ron Harris? Is Ron writing all four articles in Muscular Development leaflet magazine today?
I thought Ron was born in 1960, but it was for sure between 1960 and 1963 [inclusive]. I just can't that information online [I guess even websites die...and a lot of the bodybuilding websites that had that information on it have since been lost from the web].
I only mentioned Dave's age/looks in relation to his sister's - she looks young and healthy herself in that photo, and it's just surprising to me that she would die at 62, in light of looking so young and healthy. It's sad, but I guess that's just how life goes sometimes.

HE still has a good build,he had a very good build in his prime years for sure,he looks great otherwise and does enough to maintain that..
-
I wonder how tall Ron Harris is and if he is sexual ???
-
Rons not very tall, Im guessing not very sexual, but maybe Prime can confirm that one.
Decent enough guy though.

That was an inside joke due to Matt obession about people height.
I have done a contest or two with Ron.....definiteltly a decent enough guy for sure.

Why is this anything we need to know?

Whenever a broad with big tits dies, it's worth discussion on getbig.
