I was so sorry to hear of David's passing. I worked with David on the Red Cross Board and always counted on his contributions to keep us moving forward in a positive way.

He was generous with his time and his talents, had many interesting stories and always spoke fondly of his family, his travels and his work in the community.

My sincere condolences to the Mitchell family.

So sorry to read of your dads passing Charlie. I will be sure to let my mom know of this news as she attended school with your mom and knew some of her siblings as well. I lost my dad 12 years ago so I know what a difficult time this is for you and your family. My mom is still going strong at 92. Sincere condolences to all the Mitchell family.

What a great story teller. Enid, Barb, Charlie and Bruce please accept our condolences for Daves death. Kaaren and I were saddened by Daves death, but glad he is at peace now and no longer having any discomfort. I sure enjoyed Daves stories and many discussions at the coffee club meetings. Rest in peace Dave.
