I served in the Netherlands with him and he was a humble & respected man . I’m so sorry to hear of his death . He knew I was an actress & theatre major & found a copy of a script in Dutch & gave it to me . I still have it .

Just now found out David died . We were on our Mussions together & served in an area together . I too enjoyed the intellectual conversation although most of it was over my head . I was a theatre major & he found my favorite play in an old used book store . It was in Dutch & I still have it . I'm sorry I'm just finding out now . I was wondering how David died . I don't want to impose just wanted a little closer

We became acquaintance with David and his wife while they lived in Bandon. God must have a greater calling for him, he will be truly missed. A very gentle and wonderful individual. He will be greatly missed.

David was kind enough to be my first date ever when I turned 16. It was for a girls choice dance in high school. This made me happy and I enjoyed his friendship. I felt that he was one of the smartest people I knew growing up. He could talk about a variety of subjects. I'll never forget any of those intellectual conversations and often it helped me with my AP homework. His perspective challenged me to see things differently. I'm happy to have attended high school with David.

To David (and those that knew and loved him),
I leave you this message to say, “Until we meet again.” You were, and always will be, my dearest friend, brother, and soul-mate. The pain and grief I feel in having to let you go is immeasurable. We were a team since junior-high and I owe you more than I can ever repay in friendship. My only regret is I was not there for you during your time of greatest need. Echte vrienden blijven vrienden.
I will miss our games of strategy and hours of philosophical discussions more than anything. I leave you with these wise words from some great deist thinkers to ponder during our absence, and I look forward to meeting again in another time and place to hear your reply.
“Ungrateful and foolish it must be for rational beings in the possession of existence, and surrounded with a kind and almighty Providence, to distrust the author thereof concerning their futurity, because they cannot comprehend the mode or manner of their succeeding and progressive existence.” – Ethan Allen
“Take courage mortal, death cannot banish you from the universe.” – Benjamin Franklin
“I consider myself in the hands of my Creator, and that he will dispose of me after this life consistent with His justice and goodness. I leave all these matters to Him, as my Creator and friend, and I hold it to be presumption in man to make an article of faith as to what the Creator will do with us hereafter.” – Thomas Paine
Be at peace my friend. With love,
