Not sure what to say?

May memories of David bring peace to all who loved and knew him. I knew David through Don & Lois. I worked with Don at FPC. For a number of years we stayed at your Cabin. Whenever I am stressed I visualize the cabin and it brings such peace. And may peace be with you as you celebrate David´s life.

This is Becky Johnson. My husband Warren was at Cedarhurst and I came to know Dave at the memory care facility and enjoy his company. I would always ask him for a smile as I loved to see his blue eyes twinkle! I know it has been a long goodbye for you and I am hopeful you are at peace. How fortunate both our families were to have Cedarhurst!

I grew up with David and his family. His father was going to marry my husband and me but had an accident and couldn´t. David was best man at our wedding as he and Frank were best friends. Lost track of hom over the years. Prayers for the family.

I had the pleasure of working at GouldEvans as a bright eyed high schooler with dreams of being a architect. Although my career path didn't go that direction I cherish my time there. My condolences to the Evans family.

Blessings to Evans family.Longtimefamily,church, school friends.Roy, Stuart, Susan- Topeka

I will be sending love and positive thoughts for Merrill and her family. I had no idea what an adventurer your father was. Please know that I´ll be thinking of you.

So sorry to hear of Dave´s passing. Prayers go out to his family. Dave believed in me in 1987 when he hired me at GouldEvans, where I spent 31 years. I watched Whitney and Merrill grow up, and Ann was always a friend. He´ll certainly be missed by all. RIP

We're so sorry to hear the loss of such a fine man. In the early '80s, my wife and I collaborated with GouldEvans in the design of the passive-solar home, in which we still live. It was a pleasure to work with their young firm, and we always knew they would succeed and grow their business, which they did. I'm glad Dave got to do so much in his lifetime, and we share in the sorrow of the family.
