Hey brother Diesel....so how's that great highway in the sky? It's been a year now and I can't tell you how proud I am of your boys. They've had some bad times and good times this past year but keep moving forward and cherishing every moment they spent with you and remember all the great times they had. Adam is buying a house and doing great in his job, Todd is working hard in school and building his future and Uncle Jeff has kept himself out of the hospital for a whole year! oh yeah, and Dee keeps us all in line! I can't tell you how many of our escapades I think about that we did together....really too much fun. I'll do my very best to take care of everyone but hope you'll always watch over all of us. I'm sure you'll have it all figured out, because when we meet again it'll will be a party like old times that we'll never forget!

Hi Da Da, I know you hate when I call you that but it's never gonna stop :) I just wanted to get on here and tell you how much I miss you. Its been a year now since you made the big trip and I gotta say there's not a day that goes by I don't think of you dad. You were my best friend and i'll never forget all the crazy memories we had together aka you teaching me how to bang gears in the 442. I love you sooooo much dad and I wish and pray every day that i'll get to see you again. For now i'm gonna keep concentrating on being a strong man like you taught me to be and just live my life to the fullest because it goes by in a flash. I hope your happy where ever you are weather its out on the big roads in heaven truckin or just hangin with Freddy and catching up on old times. I love you Dad and I'll never forget the times we shared together...

David was a big part of my life. We were married 13 years - some good times, some bad times. We had become wonderful friends during the years after our marriage and raised wonderful sons. When I was sad about something, he was there to listen always. He will forever be in my heart and will cherish the wonderful memories we had together to the end. May your soul rest in peace my love.

To the family, I am so sorry for your loss. David will be sadly missed. David and I were boyhood friends and we continued our friendship through the years and ended in Norton having coffee. We always talked about the good old days and had many a good laugh. David, "If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever."

I will miss David, we shared the good times,the bad times, our thought about our children, all good of course. The days with Adam with the car dealerships and cars. Todd you hard work and your strengh to conquer what you wanted..
He was a proud father, and the best he could he could be even if we didn't agree at the time.
He accepted what life dealt him and dealt with it,he never question it, Just wanted to make every day count.
Anyone who had David Love was fortunate, because he gave it with all his heart.
My, Freind and cousin you will be missed in my life and I won't be able to take your for a ride in my car with my special driving skills.
I.Love You,Loey

My deepest sympathy to Adam and Todd, Janet, Jeffrey and Marsha. I loved David he was always fun to be with and lived his life to the fullest. He showed remarkable strength during his battle with cancer and somehow even though he has left us, he won the battle. REST IN PEACE DAVID.
LOVE,
Betty (BOO)
