David Brian Winter

David was talented, very intelligent and cared very little who judged him. He did things his way. He could have done just about anything he wanted and been successful at it. He was my best friend and my brother. I was lucky to have him in my life and I loved him very much. As brothers do we fought and sometimes it was ugly but nothing about David was ugly. He was all heart, never once hiding it from anyone. That´s why he was so adored. He was the best of everyone. He brought everyone a smile...

David and I grew up together in the Santa Cruz Mountains. He was one of my best friends. David was one in a million. His wit and humor could make anyone smile. I miss you dearly Pal.

My husband and I were fortunate enough to spend many good times with Dave as teenagers. Dave was one of the kindest and funniest people that I've ever meet. We would like to send our deepest condolences to the Winter family.We are so sorry for your loss. Dave will be greatly missed!

I was fortunate to meet and spend a lot of time with Dave through his brother Mike this past year. When Dave use to come to Sacramento for visits, him, Mike and I would go to Lake Clementine and go hiking. We would also play pool, go gambling and play shuffle board. Dave was seriously one of the funniest people I had ever met. He will definitely be missed!!!
