Not sure what to say?

I wanted to look up my friend Dave. He was my friend in the Brooks Range & taught me a lot. I have a photo of myself & Dave., though I don´t know where it is! Thank you Dave ., for teaching me some lessons in life! I was so glad to know you.

David always did his part as we grew up.school activities and sports...he was"in"and no slacker. Never a problem with getting along. All good memories with him and his family. We all should b thankful for David and the sacrifices he made to keep America safe.we are all indebted to him and those who served with him. Thanks David

Last time I saw David was just before his last tour in VN. We had coffee at TCU student union, and talked about what he was doing and why. He had more courage than anyone I've known. Went back because he believed in what he was doing was right. An American Hero!

David was a good friend in growing up. We both played basketball and was on the track team at Carter Riverside. I meet David at our 15th or 20th high school reunion. In talking with him I could tell that the Vietnam war had left it's mark on him. I tried to keep track of David through his father(my dentist)until he past.
David was a great friend, soldier, and patriot. So sorry to hear of his passing but now may he rest in peace in a better place.


David was our "down the street neighbor", classmate through high school, a sports team member, and a great friend. We spent a lot of time at his house and the "woods" behind it. Also enjoyed going to his farm and working the goats! So many good memories of David and very sad to hear of his passing. Have not been in touch with him for many years, but that does not reduce the love and respect I have for him, nor does it ease the pain of hearing of his death.
Thank you for the excellent...

David lived down the street from me when we were growing up. We went from 1st grade to high school graduation together. He was a good friend and a good athlete. We played a lot of sports together. He was the center on our football team. He also played basketball, baseball, and ran track. Was sorry to have lost contact with him through the years. And am sorry to hear of his passing. He was a friend to many, a soldier, and a patriot. May he rest in peace.

Love you David , jean & joan Gillette
