Dear Barbara,
I'm so heartbroken to hear this. My husband and I were planning a trip to the San Jose area and I wanted to look you guys up.
I still carry the "little" COACH bag on my keychain that you picked out and David gave me for Christmas. He was a very very and yes jovial man.
His former Executive Assistant...

We met David when we both worked at Intel. Car pooled together almost every day from Milpitas to Sunnyvale. We kind of lost touch after Intel. However, we met again at the Intel 45 reunion. David was a kind and generous person. We both came over from HK to US for college and share a lot of similar backgrounds. We will miss David alot.
