David played bass in my band for a few years. Was a beautiful and generous human being. Always concerned for others. Loved playing with him.

To David's family,
I was very sorry to hear of David's passing. I was in HS with David , class of '76. He was always such a fun loving guy and everyone loved being around him. He just had a way to make you feel good. Take comfort in the memories until your paths bring you together again.

To my Cousins and Families, I am so saddened by the passing of David. So many wonderful memories we shared as the youngest of the group. When our family gathered it was always happy times spent together. David was the youngest of us all,but he made up for being the littlest with his spunky character and Big personality.When we all grew up he brought his gift of music to share along with his infectious laugh and warmth and humor. He won't be far for his memory lives on in our hearts. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. I am so sorry I couldn't attend the service. With love and sympathy your cousin Elaine and Family.
