Marion,

I have many fond memories of time spent with David when I was growing up. I went to interesting places with him (like camping out on the top of Smith Mountain), studied for my ham radio license with him, and worked in his TV shop. I credit him with nourishing my love for technical things, an interest which still serves me well today. He was a faithful member of Northfield, and later Penhook Church up until he was no longer able to participate. I have never known him to do a mean thing or say a mean thing about anyone. My sympathies and best wishes to you and Bobbie.

Dear Marion,
David was one of a kind, he was the most genuine and kindest person you would ever want to meet. May your many wonderful memories see you through the sorrowful days ahead. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
