One of my greatest memories of David will always be him wearing rock band t-shirts driving around town in his grand national with loud music playing from an amazing stereo system. He turned me on to multi-disc CD players & huge speakers for cranking music like the cool kids we were. In 2020, I still have multi-disc CD players in my Jeep and in my home, and I'm grateful for him sharing one of his passions with me as it remains one of my greatest passions to this day!

David was always a very giving person, always wanting to help others & putting them before himself - a character trait that many do not have.

The proverb "the good die young" rings so true with David as he would have, without question, carried his family to a festival.

Some say GOD chooses the young that have done so much good in their short time on earth to be with him in the afterlife.

However each of us choose to see David's ascension from life to the afterlife, I believe he is in a better place now, with other loved one's we've lost too soon.

Cheers to David and those in heaven waiting to embrace one of the most selfless humans I've ever know.
