Not sure what to say?

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. I will miss my morning SUP surfs with David.

Dave was a great friend and classmate at Parkrose High School. I've been looking for him to join us at our annual Bronco Fest. We are going to miss him and I hope to attend the 2025 Surf Memorial in his honor. He taught me to surf in HS and had some great times. I'm still looking for his brother Dan...to relive some great memories.

My late husband Steve Greenberg and our family all loved David as part of our Manzanita family... He was a monument of a man. Miss him dearly.

I was very sad to learn of David's passing. I thoroughly enjoyed working with him...and Dellanne. Both such professionals and always looking out for the best interests of their clients. He will be missed. Sending heartfelt condolences.

A truly remarkable man. Taken too soon. May you rest in peace David.

Such a well lived life but there should have been even more for him to live. Condolences to Dellanne and the rest of his family.

Getting random math texts from him were some of my favorite memories. A love for problem solving shared amongst the two of us.

David treated me as a friend, almost family. G Exercise truly had character. Now you must be strong and not let negative thoughts overwhelm you. One foot in front of the other. One day at a time. Hugs.
