My husband and I had the priviledge of having Pastor David as our Pastor at Grace Lutheran Church winter Haven Fl. We were blessed Pastor David was so filled with the Holy Spirit. My Prayers are lifted up for his wife and wonderful family. May God Bless his family

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

Dear Paulette and Family my sincere Sympathy to you and your family. We loved him and all of you. Sincerely Margot Waters, Candace and Will. God bless you!

Pastor Dave was definitely “one of a kind”. His love for the Lord was evident in the way he lived a Christian life every single day. His sense of humor will not be forgotten by all who knew him. He & Paulette were a wonderful example of what a lifelong, loving marriage should be. I pray that God will surround you & your loved ones with his comfort & peace Paulette. May all the wonderful memories you shared help sustain you always.
In Christian love,
