Though David would be very flattered we are writing about him, he would be concerned about our lack of flair, jokes, and emojis. He would ask to take a look and do some editing, making sure we gave a shout out to the 206 and his Gonzaga alma mater. He is not here to help us, so we can only say what we, and so many others, already know. Our sweet little brother was charismatic, creative, and curious. We appreciated his unique quirkiness, even if we sometimes rolled our eyes at him. He was kind, thoughtful, and loving. Welcoming, spirited, and unapologetically himself from day one. His enthusiasm knew no bounds and being gathered with friends and family brought him joy. He loved to learn the obscure, ask questions (lots of questions), dream big, and was so very full of life. He always saw the good in people. He was a true friend in every sense of the meaning.
We embrace the real David and hold close the memories, laughs, and adventures we shared. He continues to love us all deeply and would want us to know that. We will carry his laugh, his smile, his brightness with us always. He will be profoundly missed by his whole family and community including his parents Tom and Liz, siblings Emily, Sarah, and James, in-laws Joe, Kyle, and Kelly, nephews Jack and Henry, niece Nora, his loving cousins, aunts, uncles, and his many dear friends.
Love you little brother,
Emily, Sarah, and James
