It's been nearly 3 years since you've been gone, and not a single week goes by that I don't think about a friday night football game and our wendy's trips afterwards. I miss staying up late and watching silly movies together, your laugh was the best laugh, but your company is what I enjoyed most. I got out a box of old pictures today and stumbled upon an album of homecoming games, and prom photos. You were rediculously hansom. I just wanted to talk to you, as I do often.

I just learned of David's passing today. He was a good friend to my little sister, and a co-worker of mine at Barton Hills Country Club. I remember David and his phenomenal personality, always warm and very caring. I cannot believe he is no longer here and grieve for him deeply. God, what a smile he had. I wish I could have gotten to know him more.

Having known his grandparents (Mary and Bob) for some time, I am aware of what a loss this is to their family. May David rest in peace and his family find comfort in knowing they are in our prayers and thoughts daily.

Dear Cousins,
Although we have never met, we are connected - by blood line, by tradition, and love. I still have loving memories of his greatgrandparents (Amy & Herbert MacCombie) who were my aunt & uncle!
I hope your grief may be made more bearable by knowing that your precious son will never be forgotten and that he is at peace.
With deepest sympathy,
Priscilla Brown

Dear Family,
Through my search for extended family I had come to know of David just before his death. I knew his great-grandparents and was pleased to begin to know of their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. My extreme sympathy and condolences go to all of your family. We will be including you and him in our prayer list at our church on Sunday. The MacCombie family has always had a very strong faith. I hope that faith can bring you some measure of solace. We do not expect to outlive our children, which makes their loss even more keen. May God be with you and hold you up.
Love, your cousin Doug

I didn't get to meet David, but I met great grandparents (Herbert and Amy),
and grandmother Mary (though I was too young to remember her). I know
the family is a wonderful one, and my thoughts are with them, and wishes
for peace.
David's spirit will be with us always.
October 22, 2004
We thank you for your thoughts and prayers and kind words and for caring.

As David's godfather and uncle, I want to express my appreciation for the many kind words and gestures expressed by the residents of Saline and Ann Arbor. As you all know, this is a very sorrowful time for the family, and your support has been overwhelming and heartfelt. I will never be able to figure out why this happened, but good can often come out of tragedy. Talk to your kids, stay involved in their lives, show them you love them. They are all one-of-a-kind. God Bless.

". . . and, when he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
And pay no worship to the garish sun." (Wm. Shakespeare)
We have a new star shining brightly through our night for us, lit by that same smile of David's that graced our days at Saline High School.

Dear Terry and family,
It seems like yesterday I met your family for the first time. My thoughts and prayers go out to you all. David was a beautiful child who loved his family very much. His smile carried him through. I still see him smiling at his mother Terry when he and his siblings stopped by Hudson's to give their hellos to her. Another thing I remember was his appreciation of anything his mother did for him. He was very thankful for the nice things she did or gave to him, he will be missed. My heart goes out to you all. May his leagacy live on through you all.
Love,
Lisa Russ

a life so short, many paths left untravled, many goals unachived, so much life was still to live, David was a friend to all and i consider myself lucky to have known him, few eyes didnt cry that day, and few hearts were left untouched. David could and will never be forgoten by his faimly and friends, and he will always have a place in our hearts. i think i can speak for most of the graduating class of 2005 david will always remeber you

As one of the members of the Saline high class of 2005 I think I can speak for all of them in saying that David was a wonderful person. He would always bring a smile to your face no matter who you were. He was well known in school and loved by everyone. You have my sympathy.

My thoughts are with you all as you grieve the loss of David. I only knew him for a very short time, but he never failed to bring a smile to my face when he'd walk into the athletic training room every day to see Lori and I. I consider myself lucky to have known him. He will be greatly missed by so many. I'll be keeping your family in my heart.

I am so sorry for your loss. My son Christopher Bergum played football last year with David, and knew him. What a fine young man he was!
I have a favorite verse I would like to share with you that helps through tough times.
Phillippians 4:13...I can do all things through Christ who strenghens me
My prayers are with you!
