My heart goes out to all of David's family, knowing he was taken too soon. My mind goes back to the glory days of our teen years, when it all seemed so simple and fun, and ours lives were ahead of us. Some of the best memories I have are centered around the Thie family. You welcomed me into your home and your lives and treated me like one of the family. I have and always will treasure those days, and David will always remain close to my heart. I can't even express how deeply sorry I am that you've lost him. Dave was truly one of the good guys.
