Not sure what to say?

Dear Kathy I just found out about David's death. I am so deeply sorry. I knew David for 30 years. He was a great friend to me. He had a heart as big as he was tall!!! I will miss him too.

David will be sadly missed, as he truly was one of the most genuine, kind, giving, caring creatures in God's Universe, interested in any and every thing and everyone. He just had such a big heart and really loved everyone. He loved life and all that is in it.
I never knew where he went following some alarm updating work he did for Jack and me in 1997. Mother, my sister and I all tried to locate him for help on our alarms several years ago, but could never find him.

Kathy, I'm really saddened and shocked to hear about Dave's passing. What a great and funny guy. Although I haven't seen you two in over 25 years, every once in a while something triggers old memories of us having a good time. Hope our paths cross again.

Sweetie, you now have your...

I met David through his friend Lisa, we enjoyed many card games and a couple of hikes together and bowling. David was a man with a very "big" heart, very caring and generous and always wanting to know what he could do for you to help you out. David will be missed by the many people whose paths he crossed and the many lives he touched. God has received a very "special Angel" when he took David.

David will truly be missed. He was the first person to ever talk to me at an URMIA event and that was in Fort Worth. He was so funny! He carried around a rubber chicken at the event that night and just made me laugh! When we met again in New Mexico at the next URMIA event, he basically took me under his wing. Which was easy to do since he was so tall and I so short. We went on the spouses tours together while our spouses attended the conference. We had a blast! It is comforting knowing that...
