David Diaz Duran

I have so many memories of David. My Spanish teacher at McKinleyville H.S. We played golf together for many years. I was sad when he left but I understand that he wanted to accomplish more in his career of education.

Mr. Duran was a mentor of mine. I'm in my 40s now, but when I was in High School (Johansen HS in Modesto) he encouraged and motivated me to get involved and do something more with my life. It was at that time I help lead the Hispanic Youth Leadership Council with my friend Claudia. Today, I take what Mr. Duran has taught me and I continue to give back by talking to HS and College youth about getting involved. When I speak at a panel and they ask me "did you have any mentors" I always...

My David,
My heart is broken. . . I miss you so much. It comforts me to know that you are with Felicia again. I am positive she is thrilled to be honoring you together this Father's Day! I hope you will both feel my absolute love this day and every other day!

I am here, on the hillthe place where we brought Felicia home that day so long ago. It is where we raised our beautiful daughters together. I feel more at peace here than anywhere.
Please stay with me forever. . .

So many years ago, but many fond memories. Thinking about my childhood friend, Audrey. Sheryl

Dear David, I will always remember you. One of the best bosses I ever had. You taught me so much and only made me better. I miss you and will think of you when I go to Prescott for Xmas. Always, Peggy (Ms. Amsterdam).

David shared his life as a mentor to HYLC advisors and students; we are forever grateful to God for the opportunity to meet him and being blessed through his friendship. Our prayers are with Audrey and family. Irma D. Janzen

Audrey, my prayers are with you. I am sure that this has been a difficut time, but consider the special time you had with this special person. There are many people who will miss Dave and they will lift you up in prayer.
