Not sure what to say?

he was a great guy.

I served in chu lai, vietnam with david. He worked as a cook but didn't like cooking so they gave him other duties. The last couple months in vietnam I drove a jeep for a captain. David would ride to Da Nang with me at different times. He was a great guy. I tried to find him after we came home

Dave, we will forever cherish the past two years we shared with you. We know you suffered in silence, strived to be strong and hide your emotions. Mom raised us to take care of each other.. We are so blessed to have been with you and that you knew we would never leave your side in your desperate time of need...we are so sorry for your pain and suffering.. Yet through all that you found laughter in recalling our crazy growing up years.. We love you and will forever miss you... You truly are...

I'm so sorry to hear of David's passing. We went to Mesa elementary school(Alice Bryne) together. David, Wesley Chin and I were the first three amigos. My condolences to all the family.

My condolences to all of his family especially to his big brother, Ish, and his beautiful sisters.

My dad " IS " a great man, a very hard working Dad and Husband, he had a sense of humor like no other person I know, and he has surely past that down to all of us children.
