Not sure what to say?

Time does not heal...time has only made me miss my father even more. Although my heart is heavy today I remain forever grateful that I had such an amazing Dad and an even better grandfather to my children. We are all better for having had him in our lives. I love you Papa!!!

With my condolences and best wishes for peace to the loving Hereford family.

I hear so many comments about David's wonderful craftsmanship as a home builder and remodeler, just one of many talents and a respect he had for quality: a love of life -- his love of family, his love of travel and trying out new camping spots, his boat he enjoyed for many years, his vegetable garden, the beautiful pergola he built for his wife Jaye among many other quality pieces, including the jewelry box he made of cherry wood that now holds his remains. We miss you, David.

So sorry to hear of David's passing. He was a kind & gentle man with a quick smile. Our thoughts are with his family. Sally & Harve Ballard

My most sincere condolences - love and prayers go out to the Hereford family.

We are still enjoying the cedar deck David built for us 30 years ago. He hand selected every cedar board, and it was a piece of art when he finished. The two matching cedar gates still work perfectly. His craftmanship is hard to find these days. Why do the good die young?

I knew David through the window & door business. Was surprised to see his obit today. Will always remember his gentleness & kindness. I'm glad I knew him.
