I have known Father David for many years and when both of us were much younger we enjoyed conversation, we laughed together and we shared a few somber moments & tears as well. My wife and I still have the dictionary that FRs. Pat & David gave us for our wedding gift in 1971. Eighty eight years of life and service to our Lord and Savior is what I will remember Father David for, a kind and loving gentlemen who always saw the finer and brighter side of life. Always an optimist and a believer...
