Not sure what to say?

I am so sorry for your loss. It sounds like David was very well-loved and will be greatly missed. I have vague memories of meeting my cousins once or twice when I was very young. (I think I remember one of you calling me "watermelon", lol. I guess I was a chubby little girl! I have more vivid memories of your father, my Uncle Donald, and my aunt, (Aunt Anna?).
