Where to begin I can remember David when I was going thru my teens. His ex step daughter Becky and I were best friends. David was for sure a joker and will be missed. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

My thoughts and prayers are with David's family. I worked with David at Barnhart and he was always a very good friend to me, especially during difficult times in my life. He was always there for me and will be sorely missed.
