Not sure what to say?

I am very sorry to hear of Davids passing. I know he loved you all so much. He was a very kind man with a heart of gold. Take care and remember the memories for they will help you through the days of sorrow.
God Bless You All

Dear Family,
I just found out about David passing and so sorry, I only meet you once Donna and my thoughts and prayers are with you. David and I have logged many miles on Bikes together and I will truly miss his company and friendship. I lost my wife a short time ago and I understand your pain let me know if there is anything that I can do.

I knew David many, many years ago through my first husband who had gone to school with him. It's been so many years but I've always remembered him with great fondness. I had met Donna once or twice and always thought they were so lucky to have found their true soulmates. My prayers are with her and her family.

Donna-
My thoughts and prayers are with you. My years at the newspaper were brighter with David in them, he could always make you laugh! Always willing to help you and didn't know an enemy. I know he loved you and the children so much!

Dear Family,

It's probably been 25 years since I last saw David (before seeing him today). We had some good times together back in our fraternity days. He and I went to Destin Labor Day weekend of 1979 (I think that's the right year). I got the worst sunburn of my life. He drove all night and we arrived early in the morning and slept for a while on the beach until we could find a room. He also helped me get a part-time job with the paper while I was in school back then.

I know...

Dear Family, Sorry for your loss. I am an old friend of David's sister, Shelia. We spent many years in Girl Scouts together and their mother was our leader. My Sincere condolences from all of us in GS Troop 68 (1968-1970)

David will be missed God bless the family

Donna,
Oh, my. We remember the days of circulation parties & camping & swimming (fully clothed) with Dave's work family - we will forever miss his calming influence, his quiet sense of humor, and the way his face turned red when he told a joke. We will think of Dave and your family often, and will miss him dearly.

You are in our thoughts and prayers as we express our deepest sympathy. May God continue to keep each of you.
