David and I were good friends in high school. My friends and I took him to the bus station the day he left for Viet Nam. Sad day for us. He was so much fun to be around.
He and his family moved into the house on Pope Street that I grew up in.
This is awful. Prayers go out to the family!

David and I grew up together and joined the Army on the buddy system in 1968. We both served in Vietnam.
I went to school with his wife Donna for several formative years.
My sincere condolences to his serving family.
