Pat I am so sorry to hear about you loss, I know you were so close. You were so blessed to have such a wonderful son. He was always such an upbeat person and an amazing tennis player and painter. It was always such a pleasure to see him and I was fortunate to have known him, though it has been years since I have seen you both. My heart goes out to you and your family!

I am just starting to connect with my friends from Highland High School,moved away almost 18 yrs ago. Am friends with Meg Gorman when I saw her post about Dave Smith. Still have the 1976 Yearbook and looked him up just because of all the changes since high school. I can scan the pictures of all the seniors in my class but always have to stop when it comes to Dave. I remember you and always will with very fond memories. My heart goes out to your family in such trying times!

Bruce, Pat, Cindie, so sorry to hear about the loss of Cousin David. Seems just like yesterday I saw him at Hart Park. We talked for a bit while I was photographing Birds. He will surely be missed. My prayers go out to the Family. Hang in there, he is still with us in our memories. Sorry I missed the Memorial Service, just couldn't get away from the fast pace of life. I will see you soon, God Bless you all.
