Perhaps you sent a lovely card or sat quietly in a chair.
Perhaps you sent a contribution or brought food to show you care.
Perhaps you called or spoke as kind a word as any friend could say.
Perhaps you came by our home and spend some time one day.
Whatever you did to console my heart,my thanks to you for your special part.
As life goes on,I hope that we will find ways to celebrate the memory of our David. I know he would want us to live every day to the fullest...

David and Victoria, October 2006
I am devastated. I love David with all my heart. We met about 25 years ago at Union Square Macy's in SF. I thought he was absolutely gorgeous in body and soul. He became my hairdresser and my friend. He became family, like a brother to me. He has been by my side though so many life experiences ever since. I can not imagine my life without him in it.

I was deeply sad when I heard the news about Mr. Galang. I didn't want to believe it at first I couldn't. He meant so much to me as a teacher more than he will ever know. He taught me everything I know and believed in me. If it weren't for him I wouldn't even have my license. He was the BEST teacher Skyline ever had and he will always have a special place in my heart. I wish I had the opportunity to tell him this. My heart goes out to Nelson, I know Mr.Galang loved him so much. The way he...

Mr. Lang was a great educator and absolutely a great person. he loved teaching and I appreciated every single ounce of help he ever offered me. Most of what I know about my career was because of him all all the other great teachers at Skyline. He always gave me great advice and pushed me to do better. I remeber joking with him and a couple of the other students in my class and he had a great sense of humor. He will be missed and definately remembered.

Mr. Lange is how I knew him before he got married. Actually, we used to call him "LangeGalang." He definitely cared for his students. He taught me everything I know about color and even after 5 years since I have graduated from Skyline Cosmetology, I still think about him every time I have to come up with a difficult formula. Mr. Lange always made me laugh and always encouraged me to be the best at everything I've learned. He will always have a huge part in my successes and future endeavors....

David brightened anyone's day that happend to bump into him while walking around Skyline College. He cared about his friends and co-workers. He took the time to ask how you were and truly listened. He will be missed. My heart goes out to his family.
