Ohh Sandy I wanted to call so badly to check up on his status. I didn't cause I was afraid since he hasn't called or you for his usual~~ and when I finally got the nerve to call ~~ OMG! I feel terrible and so bad for you. I knew what was happening and then the paper confirmed it. If you need to talk~~ Please DON'T HESITATE to call me. He shared a lot with me and Loved you SOO much. Davey will be missed by SO Many! He even told my young Daughter when she enlisted (he knew I was so mad about it) He said to her as he was walking out the door ' Hey kid that's the best decision you will ever make in your life! You will be fine and so will your mother!' Sent with much Love Gina
