Not sure what to say?

Dave, I'll take a little license to write some things about you that I have cherished for decades. That polaroid of you with a huge smile wrapping your arm around Dave Thomas, the founder of Wendy's, juxtaposed his face contorted in disgust. It was a confirmation that we had the same absurd sense of humor. You posted the polaroid of me wearing the flower hat next to it on your refrigerator. That made me happy. I always enjoyed when you would come home from fishing and we would cook trout...

miss you

David was my half Brother, I William always thank of him

Still in our hearts

David was not only a true film professional, but a caring exceptionally unique character. He had a very special place in this world that can not be filled by another. May he continue his callings in the next world.

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

Memphis bands like ours were fortunate to have David create well-crafted videos for them back in the early 1990s. He was a kind and supportive person to everyone in our scene and to his later farming community in Middle Tennessee. He will certainly be missed.

Such a beautiful mind.

David will always have a special place in my heart. On our first date he brought me buttercups in a mason jar. I love you David and I will never forget you ❤
