Dave,
I was sitting here, watching random music videos, and i was thinking about you, because in one of the videos i was watching, the lead singer, looked just like you, almost identical. We all miss you here, i know my parents and my family miss you. we love you... and i would like to mention, Anthony is the cutest thing in the world, we are all grateful here to be able to see him (he looks just like you!). We love you!
<3 always and forever,
Merissa Lynn

So many time people come and go from our lives. From when we were kids to the grown ups we have become. It is rare to sind someone that just belonged in so many peoples lives. Fit there, whether in past or future, and remain in memory as if it were moments just past. Davey you were and are one of those people. No matter where you were or who knew you, you became a part of them. Unjudging and a great person. So many great memories from your time in Florida when we were kids. Definately one of the best summers I could remember on Winfield.
You are still an angel, just touching our lives in a different way. Watch over us and we will all meet again.
With all my love and sadness,
Dee

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
R.I.P. My Dear Friend
There's not a day that passes that I don't think about you

Been looking at some pictures of you recently, Davey. I'm getting to know some of your friends...and how they loved you. Still working through guilt and regrets. Wishing I could have been there for you during your last year here. But, I know that you are free now, from sin, from pain, from worry. Your son is beautiful and looks just like you. I hope to keep in touch with him and his mom. I want to be available to them if they should ever need me. I love you and miss you terribly.

Your birthday just passed.... it was so hard to not be able to pick up the phone and call you. I miss you and think of you every day. I hope you are at peace. I love you. RIP.

I will never forget this awful time...Yet I still dare to hope when I remember this: The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is His faithfulness; His mercies begin afresh each morning.

Dave will always be in our hearts.

The many memories that I have of my friend David when he was just litte boy. I remember chasing him away from my duaghter Irma more than once, I guess they liked each other, when I would question him about it he would have a very funny and interesting answer, wich would always make me laugh and it would cuase me to forget that I was angry at him. Thats just one. We became good friends. Thru the years he would come to visit me. Last time we spoke I was very proud of him he had overcome so many obstacles. He was no longer that little boy I saw a man. I encouraged him to continue to keep his eyes on the lord.
Jesus said... "I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life. (john 5:24).
I do miss my friend, But I will see him again...

We are honored that we were able to attend David's viewing on Friday evening and pay our respects. It was a blessing to see so many people there and such an outpouring of love for David and his family and friends.
What a comfort we have in these words of Jesus:
Jesus said... "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. (John 11:25-26)
Lord, we come now to You, and commit to You those whose grief is so great today, praying that You will give them Your comfort and Your peace. Place Your hand upon these ones, and touch their hurting hearts with Your love. Be very near to them now. Amen.

Dave...we had some good laughs. You turned me on to Nirvana and the whole alternative music thing, so thanks for opening my mind! You were very special to my family, especially my father who cared a great deal for you. Hold it down up there, say hi to my mom. I'll be seeing you someday!

To MY Family & Friends,
First of all to let you know that I arrived okay.
I'm writing here from heaven. Here I dwell with The Lord above....
Here there is no more sadness...
Only eternal love.
Don't be unhappy just because I'm out of sight...
Remember that I'm with you every, morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you, when my life on earth was through....God picked me and hugged me, He said " Dave I welcome you"...
It's good to have you home again, you were missed while you were gone...
As for your dearest family and friends,
they'll be here later on....
I need you here badly, " your part of My Master Plan, there's so much that we have to do to help Our mortal man".
God gave me a list, that he wished for me to do....
First and foremost, was to watch and care for you...
When you go to bed at night, the days chores put to flight....
Remember God and I are closest to you in the middle of the night...
When you think of my life on earth, all the loving years...
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears....
Do not be afraid to cry, it will ease the pain....
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was the rain...
I wish that I could tell you all what it is that God has planned...
But if I was to tell you, you wouldn't understand...
One thing is for certain...
though my life on earth is over...
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before....
There are many rocky roads, so many hills to climb....
Together we can do it...
Taking one step at a time...
It was always my philosphy...
and I'd like it for you too.
That as you give unto the world...
the world will give to you...
If you can help somebody who is in sorrow and in pain...
You can say to God at night, " my day hasn't been in vain"...
Now I am contented....
that my life has been worthwhile...
knowing as I passed, I made somebody smile....
If you meet someone who is sad and feeling low....
Just lend a hand to pick him up...
As on your way you go...
When you walking down the street and you have me on your mind....
I am walking in your footsteps just a half a step behind....
And when it's time for you to go on from your body to be free...
Remember your not going...
Your coming home to me...

To Davey (my nephew), my heart still aches and I'm wondering when that will fully subside. You will always be "my little Davey", the little boy with big dreams. You were always so mischevous! That makes me smile. I'm so sorry that you were hurting so much during the last days of your life on earth. I have so many regrets and wish I were more a part of your life during the last year. But, God is consoling me and showing me that he saw your hurt and your struggle and decided to take you so that you could find true peace and rest. There was so much going on inside of you your whole life that no one really could understand - but, God saw it all. Now, you're home. Now, you're free. Now, the struggle is over and you have clarity of thought and no longer wonder if your life has true value. You're with the One who gives you value. I love you, my little Davey, and am really looking forward to seeing you again. For those who read this and are also trying to find significance in this life, please read Jermiah 29.11-15.

I'm still trying to cope with the news. It's been very hard. I miss you very much. The part I hate the most is that I can't just pick up the phone and call my friend anymore. No matter what, you will always remain apart of me.

Davey,
I will always miss you. You were like a brother to me. You were there for some of the happiest moments of my life, you always had the best advice and you were always such a loyal friend. I will always miss you, but you have influenced my character so much over the past decade I feel like you will always be here. You lived your life to the fullest and all your friends will always love you and miss you. You taught me how to set off fireworks and whenever I set one off it will be for you. RIP Davey.
Love,
Teel
