Remembering David Jennings

     The Kegel Family lost one of their members on October 17, 2014. David Jennings past away after his brief battle with cancer at the age of 59. He was one of the founders of Kegel in 1981, alongside
John Davis, who past away January 25, 2013. David Jennings was one of the lead mechanics for Kegel and knew exactly how to fix the mechanical problems and issues that the Training Center and other bowling centers faced. Through him knowing exactly how to fix the machines helped the research and development department know how to make certain mechanical problems disappear. David was the guy who built the different machines that now are being used by bowling centers around the world. He contributed to the sport and industry of bowling through making the machines working and functioning properly. 

     During the Brunswick Southern Collegiate Classic Tournament on Nov. 1 and 2 in Marietta, Georgia, the Webber Bowling Team wore black bands to show their remembrance, respect, and how thankful they were for everything David Jennings did for Kegel, the Webber Team, and the sport of bowling. We will always remember you David Jennings.
