I met him once...his music astounded me yet it was family oriented...I bought smooth and quirky from him and laughed to his music to this day. RIP his harmonic study is still amazing

I was helped many times in the MLC at Cabrillo by this wonderful, caring man and I am so very sad to hear of his passing. My sincerest condolences to his family.

Merritt,
I am so saddened for your loss. David was, indeed, an incredible man. My wife and I met David during our stay at Costanoa. We enjoyed his wonderful music. David was gracious to play our wedding song for us. This kept us coming back, to hear, David play is guitar. We missed him on Valentine weekend this year, but our memory of David will never be forgotton.

I am so incredibly saddened by David's passing. An incredible example of humility, kindness, love and family is how I've always seen you all. Your love for each other and all people is an inspiration. Sending love and prayers of comfort to you all.

Shock, sadness and disbelief doesn't begin to express my feelings. I will always cherish memories of David and his role at the stroke center and his great gift to us particpating at our wedding! A man of great and many talents, kind hearted and a very special individual. Thoughts and prayers for you and family. Rhodna (&Steve)

David was a consistent, conscientious, and such a caring musician and human being...this past October we had just been to Rodoni's pumpkin patch on Hwy 1. We stopped at the Whale City Bakery on our way back to Santa Cruz. I was overjoyed that David was just beginning a set because my 14-year old and her friends had never heard him before. We sat on the patio and we were entranced by the music of this man. Thank you so much.

PS David's music also helped Tim Fitzmaurice, Keith Sugar and...
