Not sure what to say?

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

David and I worked together in broadcasting and developed a great friendship. He showed up at my 50th birthday as the unofficial photograper. We never had a chance to get together for him to share the pictures. You never knew when he would show up. He had such a great spirit.

Dearest Joyce, Lester, & Joy,

I've just now heard & there are no words to express the intense sorrow I feel at the loss of the wonderful being that was David. May you find the strength & perseverance to get through this great tragedy. My heart aches for you. Please know that my thoughts & prayers are with each of you & a personal note will follow. He was such a beautiful spirit & he was so loved. I hope you will find comfort in knowing this.

Much Love,
Elizabeth...

It was David's idea to hire me in 1986 as co-host of a morning show in Memphis...a show that lasted until 2003. I owe a large part of my radio career to him. David will be missed.

My sincere condolences to the family.

Dear David, Mason, Lester, and Joyce I am very sorry to hear about the loss of David. You are in my thoughts and prayers. David was as talented of a person as I had ever met and was such a kind person. He will be deeply missed.
My family the Harris's Benny, Marsha, Brad, Scott, Emily along with grandmother Beverly are deeply saddened by this loss. We were very blessed to have David in our family for many years and will always consider him part of our family.

Mrs. Gingold, I'm so sadden by your loss. Your family will be in my heart and prayers. Love you, Marilyn

I am shocked and saddened to learn of David's passing.

David was my partner in building Birch Ratings in the early 1980s. We spent thousands of hours together in business and as friends after hours. David was a kind and decent human being, and a ton of fun. I have so many wonderful memories of my time with David. He was a joy to be with and I am honored to be his friend and business associate.

David, rest in peace my friend.

Wishing you peace to bring comfort, courage to face the days ahead and loving memories to forever hold in your heart.
