I was alerted this morning to the news that Dave Pugh passed away in Camden, SC.  Dave was a long-time member of the Palmetto Shell Club in South Carolina and for the last 15 years the NC Shell Club.  He was also a member of COA.  He was 86 years old.
He lived for many years in Florida where he was an active shell collector there as well.
I have no other details.
