Dear Bella, Harvey, Tobey, Roberta and Family, This is Katie, Andrea´s sister-n-law, Larry´s wife.

Please accept our condolences for the loss of your dear husband and your sweet brother. Wishing you all love to bring you comfort, instant courage to face those every day moments when you want to fall apart but can´t and a kaleidoscope of beautiful, happy memories you all shared with David to recall upon at any moment.. We feel the light of a star long after it is gone. With that said, may you forever feel David´s spirit in your hearts & minds.

Although I never had the pleasure to really know David, I can say that through the many stories that Roberta has shared with me throughout the years, one thay stands out best is when Roberta told me, "If you wanted one brother to go somewhere, you´d better make sure you were ready to get 2 for 1, as they (David & Harvey) were always together!

I will keep you all in my prayers!

Respectfully,

Katie, Larry, Jack & Michael Chasin
