Not sure what to say?

Uncle Dave was such a wonderful man. We are so sorry for your loss. Please know all of you are in our thoughts and prayers. Sending love and hugs.

Diane, I am so sorry to read of your loss of David. My deepest condolences. I will be praying for you and your family. Doris Nollman

The Herb Hendricks family has always enjoyed talking with David and Greg and of course the uncles. They always had time to talk about family. Looking back I think the Shakes and Sullivan's were related to everyone.
Will miss Dave.

So sorry for you loss! There are no words that can make it better. Know that we are praying for all of you and hope that you can feel the healing hands of God around you.

Love, The Lockwood Family
(Mark, Linda, Danny & Ian)

Thoughts and prayers are with you.

Praying for peace in your hearts, the same peace he now has with his Lord.
