Not sure what to say?

Although it's been 7 years since David's passing, I still think of and miss him often. When the time comes, I can't wait to see him in heaven. For the rest of my life, I will remember him.

I'm sorry it took so long to write something I couldn't bring myself to doing this until now. David A.K.A. bobi was the most amazing person on earth. He taught how not to be afraid about life. He would literally jump on or at anything. He was the kindest person and the most loving person as well he always thought of others before himself. Even if people didn't know who he was he bring smiles to his face. He made everyone feel out of shape. Even if David said he was out of shape that would be...

I am so sorry to hear about David. He was a student in my computer programming classes at Messiah and one of my advisees before he switched to chemistry. He worked hard and always had a positive attitude. I will miss seeing him here at Messiah.

There isn't a solitary thing that I can say against Dave. Unfailingly, seeing him on campus was a pleasure and brought a little more joy to my day. I am very sorry to hear about his untimely departure.
Peace be with you.

I never had the privilege to meet David, but I am sad to hear about his death, as his mother expressed the strongest pride I have ever seen in being a parent to her children. She would glow in expressing the blessing of having such "wonderful children", sharing beautiful stories about her connection with each of her kids. When I would ask about David, I grew to appreciate hearing about his dedication to learn, helpfulness towards others and his loyal connection with his religious youth group....

I didn't know him to well though he was almost always happy when I saw him. He was quiet at times, but he was nice. I first met him at the bouldering wall where he was climbing on the ceiling. He was having so much fun. I'm going to miss him.

Though I only knew David for a very short time, he has impacted my life forever. He always brought a smile to my face and his positive attitude was contagious to everyone he met. I will miss him always. My prayers go out to David's family and to everyone whose life he touched.

Audrey, Dave and family, my prayers are with all of you. My heart breaks every time I think about your son and you. I am so very sorry for your loss. I'm here as your friend when you need me. God Bless...

Please know that I am thinking about all of you, family and friends of David. I will be praying that God will comfort you as you do life without him.. Audrey, I love you,my friend! Praying for you and your mothers heart.
