Dave was most certainly an icon, as well as an inspiration to so many.

And you’re right, SamHenry… I think America DID love him. I was so sad when he passed away.

Whoa, I sure didn’t. VERY cool!
:O

Thanks for the heads up on that, SamHenry! You’re a good pal for letting me know – I read Legal Insurrection early this morning, but missed it.

I just have to add my voice of praise for old Dave now gone. When I scrolled down and saw the Wendy’s advert, I actually got a lump in my throat. I think America actually loved him. I think of him everytime I am in there. They have the best burgers in the industry and I think that point was made in that famous guidebook the name of which is escaping me now.

I also loved the old Wendy’s commercials with Dave Thomas. He was such an inspiration… he was adopted as a child, and had an extremely strong work ethic. He worked his fanny off to realize his dream. They don’t make many like Dave anymore.

I’m glad you liked the post… I had to separate myself from politics today to get into the Christmas spirit. One day without Barack Obama is like a day with sunshine and butterflies.

I enjoyed your post.
Dave Thomas IS the man you see in the commercials he made.
I met him once, and will always have a tremendous respect for his business acumen and personality.
