So sorry to hear about Davey. He was such a sweet boy and funny. He and Sammy were sitting on the porch and both were barefooted, Davey looked down at his toes and said " I have fur on my toes just like you." He loved hot air balloons. One day there were at least 30 hot air balloons over our neighborhood and he was elated and so funny , sweet soul. We will miss him too. Our prayer are with
you.
