I have wonderful memories of David playing little league baseball with Jimmy right on up through their school days hanging out and getting into trouble.
David was a fine young man always ready to get into something he had a wonderful smile and just an over all great guy. I am sure the days ahead are going to be extremely hard on all of you but I pray god will wrap his loving arms around all of you and hold you close.
Love and prayers,

Dear Wayne, Cheryl, Loretta, Lisa (and children), Kim (and family), Mike (and children),
I am not sure where to start. Wayne, your family was the first family I met when we moved up on the "Briery", many years ago. I have so many fun memories of David, Kim, Lewis, and myself all growing up together. We would take that old blue golf cart and run it through your fields of clover - making you mad, then David would imitate you making us laugh....he did a great job at imitating you! We would fish at the pond, ride bikes around the neighborhood from house to house, play hide & seek around the farm buildings, and just hang out together. I will miss David's waves from the tractor, morning waves when taking the kids to the bus, and his "dancing" on the back of the truck on route 17 as he would advertise the corn you grew to sell.......if you could call it dancing!?!? *smile* Wayne, I know that you and David were very close and you will greatly miss him. Cheryl, I know you and David were close also, as he was Wayne's right hand man, left hand man, and all of in between. He stepped in to take over the farm chores while Wayne was away on business and knew exactly how Wayne wanted things handled - they were definitely two of a kind! Loretta, I know you will greatly miss him, as a mother and son have a bond like no other - - I cannot even attempt to imagine what you are gong through, but I can tell you that you have so many wonderful memories and love around you to help you through. God Bless you,
Lisa (and Children) - David was a good man, a hardworker, and a good father. You have your great memories to help you get through this difficult time and to carry with you throughout the rest of your life. May you find comfort in knowing that you were part of his life and he loved each of you. You hold so many great times (and some not so great) but hold each of them close and remember him dearly. May God Bless all of you. Kim (and family) I know you and David were close. You have so many memories to hold close to your heart. For him to have been taken so young, is very sad. Remember all of those memories are there for your heart to treasure. God Bless all of you. Mike (and children), Well you are the youngest of the three, I also know that you and David were close. You had your ups and downs..... but you still have soooo many memories that you will have to get you beyond the pain of losing your brother. He was a good guy who would give you the shirt off of his back. He could make you laugh and he could be very serious. Hold all of your fond memories close, think of him often, and let those arround you support you through the tough times. To all of you, Let the Lord wrap his strong arms around and show you his strength to get you through, as he so openly does for all of us. You have so much support around you, I will pray for each of you, and I do want you to know if you need anything, or if there is anything I can do, please let me know..... Wayne, I am only across the street and a phone call away. God Bless all of you......David will be deeply missed by all who knew him. God Bless, Debbie & Duane Wilkins ( & Mikey, Amanda & Kayla
