David W. West

Dear Paul and Raymond,

I have known your father since 1955-56. He used to tell me how to cook chicken in pots. He'd tell me first use a little pot, then a big little pot and so forth. It would go on and on and on in southern drawl.

I so appreciate David taken such good care of Sylvia when she was pretty much homebound. He became quite a bargain shopper.

I will say I would have given a million to see your mother's face when David showed up in Paradise.

Love you...

I was blessed to meet David weeks before his passing. He truly changed my life and for that I am so thankful! I wish the family the very best!

Ray I am sorry for your loss and hope you will draw support from the many friends you have in the neighborhood due to your deep roots and the relationship that you father established here throughout the years he and Sylvia lived here.
