I am so sorry. I have such fond memories of spending the summers with David at the lake. Eating ice cream at the Bridge and feeding the carp all day. Just enjoying each others company in the sunshine. He was such a gentle and warm soul. I will always remember his strength as I walk through my own struggles on Earth. He will be sadly missed by myself and our friends. Sending all my love, Kristin Famuliner

The entire faculty and staff here at Dudley Elem. School extends our sympathy to the Carter Family. You have been a part of our "school family" for many years. When a former student and friend passes away - it touches us all! David was always upbeat, smiling, and had such a wonderful outlook on life - even while he was struggling with his own health. He will forever be a shining example to us all! May God bless you all - and comfort you in the difficult days ahead.
