I knew David when he was a meer boy with a sheepish grin who worked for my Dad at Ward's Amtv. He was a good person and, I'm sure, will be missed by many. My condolences.

Dave was like sunshine when the day was gray. He made us feel so much at home when we first showed up at CC. The last time we talked with him, we could tell he was not feeling well, but he had this hugh smile on his face and said I am doing okay. We will miss him. Dennis and Bonzie

Mary our prayers are with you at this difficult time. Dave was a true and treasured friend. Our time together working at St Andrews was a high point in my life. When I had a difficult time with a physical chore servicing a mower Dave was the first to jump in and help. The amazing thing about my friend Dave was with all his medical history he never conplained but always asked how I felt. He jumped in had helped everyone. He had so much knowledge in building maintainance and safety regulations. He made all of our lives a joy by being our friend He will be greatly missed by all but especially by the grounds crew at St Andrews. A true humanitarian and cherished friend. We will miss him but know he is with God and still helping us all.

Please accept my deepest sympathy. I worked with Dave when he first became a federal employee at the Records Center. He and Monte were my supervisors on the Fire Project. He was a great friend and extremely kind to everyone he met. I was glad to see him again and meet Mary on one of my visits to KC several years later. He was always so proud of his family and spoke of them with tremendous love.
