In Germany, David entered Little...

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. I have shared many a memory with David (Doggie) on the baseball field and beyond. So many stories over the years come back to me at this time. He will be missed, he was one of a kind.

great friend and co-worker in Lodi. He will be missed.
